Fort Victoria was a single tier battery with defensible barracks west of Yarmouth Isle of Wight England. It was built in the 1850s later used as a submarine mining centre and training area for military purposes. The larger barrack blocks were demolished in 1969 but the sea-facing casemates were not and form the current standing structure which is a Grade II Listed Building.
