Puckpool Battery (map reference SZ615923) is a battery located at Puckpool Point close to the town of Ryde on the Isle of Wight. It is one of the many Palmerston Forts built on the island to protect it in response to a perceived French invasion. Construction of the battery began in 1863 and was completed by March 1865. It has since been designated a Scheduled Ancient Monument.
