Needles Old Battery

Travel Information and nearby accommodation

A Victorian gun battery built in a staggeringly beautiful location at the very westerly point of the Isle of Wight. The original cannons set up against the threat of FRench invasion are still on display. A tunnel leads right through the cliff to a viewpoint over The Needles and its famous striped lighthouse.
West Highdown, Totland, Isle of Wight, England, PO39 0JH
