Scawt Hill is a volcanic plug in County Antrim, Northern Ireland, in the borough of Larne, 5 km from the village of Ballygally. It gets its name from the Ulster Scots "scawd" meaning scaly, scabby or rugged. Alternatively, 'scawt' meaning scruffy and contemptible, and when applied to rocks, covered in barnacles.
