Sandown Castle was a Device Fort built at Sandown on the Isle of Wight by Henry VIII in 1545 to protect against the threat of French attack. Constructed from stone with angular bastions, its design was a hybrid of Italian military architectural thinking with traditional English military design. The site was raided by a French force that summer while the fortification was still being constructed. The site suffered from coastal erosion and the castle was demolished in 1631.

  • Sandown Castle war ein Artillieriefort, das König Heinrich VIII. 1545 in Sandown auf der englischen Isle of Wight zum Schutz gegen einen vermuteten Angriff der Franzosen bauen ließ. Daher zählt es zu den Device Forts. Die steinerne Burg mit winkligen Bastionen war ein Konglomerat aus italienischer und traditioneller, englischer Militärarchitektur. Das Gelände wurde im Sommer desselben Jahres, als das Fort noch in Bau war, von einer französischen Truppe überfallen. Später litt es unter der Küstenerosion und das Fort wurde 1631 abgerissen. (de)
