Inott Point (Lua error in Module:Coordinates at line 489: attempt to index field 'wikibase' (a nil value).) is a point 1 nautical mile (2 km) north-northeast of Edinburgh Hill forming the eastern extremity of Varna Peninsula on Livingston Island in the South Shetland Islands, Antarctica. Situated 4.3 km southwest of Bagryana Point on Greenwich Island across McFarlane Strait. In association with the names of nineteenth century sealers in this area, it was named by the UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee after Captain Robert Inott, Master of the American sealing ship Samuel (after which Samuel Peak was named) from Nantucket, who visited the South Shetland Islands in 1820–21.[1]
