Yaverland Battery is a battery on the Isle of Wight, United Kingdom. It was constructed between 1861 and 1864. It originally mounted eight 7-inch Armstrong Rifled Breech Loading (RBL) guns, and enclosed with a Carnot wall. A rear surrounding wall included a small barrack block for two officers and 57 men. By 1886 the original guns had been replaced by eight 64-Pounder Rifled Muzzle Loading guns. Between 1898 and 1900 the battery was re-modelled to mount three 6-inch Mk VII Breech Loading guns. The remains of the Battery are now a Scheduled Ancient Monument.
