The Redshaw Point is an ice-free headland in the southeastern West Antarctic James Ross Island . It separates Hobbs Glacier from Ball Glacier and juts out into Markham Bay .
The UK Antarctic Place-Names Committee named the headland in 1995 after Susan Margaret Redshaw (* 1954) who was used for the British Antarctic Survey on James Ross Island (1990–1991, 1994–1995) and at Rothera Station (1992 –1993) was active.
