Warden Point Battery, Artillery battery in Totland, Isle of Wight, England.
The battery features stone walls with a central caponier on the landward side and additional caponiers at the North and South corners.
Built in 1862 as part of the Isle of Wight coastal defenses, the battery initially contained 7-inch and 9-inch rifled muzzle loader weapons.
The Grade II listed structure represents the military engineering practices of Victorian England and the nation's coastal defense strategies.
Located on private property at coordinates 50°41'17"N 1°32'39"W, the former military installation is not currently accessible to visitors.
The battery transformed from a military post to a holiday camp after 1936, and now stands among residential developments while maintaining its historical features.
