Golden Hill Fort was a defensible barracks at Freshwater, Isle of Wight, England, built as part of the Palmerston defences by the 1859 Royal Commission on the Defence of the United Kingdom to provide manpower to man the defences at the western end of the Isle of Wight, England.

Built in hexagonal form, it accommodated 8 officers and 128 men, and had its own hospital.

The site is owned by the Isle of Wight Council and managed by Gift to Nature.
