A small rocky island which lies close northwest of the tip of Red Rock Ridge. First surveyed in 1936 by the BGLE under Rymill.

They were surveyed in 1947 by the FIDS and named for the M.V. 527:. Small steep glacier flowing northwest to Neny Bay between Mount Nemesis and Roman Four Promontory. First roughly surveyed in 1936 by the BGLE under John Rymill. Resurveyed in 1947 by the FIDS. The name, given by FIDS, derives from association with Roman Four Promontory. 802:. A rocky promontory rising to 830 metres (2,720 ft) high, marking the north side of the entrance to Neny Fjord. First charted by the BGLE, 1934-37, under John Rymill.

A small ice-free rock in the north part of Neny Fjord, lying close south of Roman Four Promontory. First surveyed in 1936 by the BGLE under Rymill.

An island lying at the head of Neny Fjord, along the west coast of Graham Land. First surveyed by the USAS, 1939-41. Resurveyed in 1949 by the FIDS, who so named it because of pyroxenic rocks found there. 1463: 1429: 439:(FIDS) in 1949. The name was suggested by K.S.P. Butler of the FIDS in 1948 because the shape of the glacier with its narrow head and wide mouth resembles a snowshoe. 280:(BGLE) made a detailed survey of this area in 1936–1937, and in correlating their work with that of Charcot applied the name Neny Fjord to the bay between 844:.
