Description: Nicodemus Knob, Isle of Portland. This stack of rock really is called Nicodemus Knob. It was left behind when the rest of the area was quarried to provide building material for the nearby Verne citadel and the Portland breakwater. Its size gives an indication of how much Portland Stone was quarried away. Another famous Dorset knob (along with the biscuits and the Cerne Abbas giant)?
