Located at Alum Bay, Isle of Wight, England. It was so named because of a needle-shaped rock that stood in the gap in this picture. Eroded by the sea it crumbled to the sea in 1764. Here is a painting depicting the Needles when the needle-rock was still standing: http://www.needles.shalfleet.net/images_needles/needles_lotswife.jpg
