The West Place of Arms is a place-of-arms in the British Overseas Territory of Gibraltar that was originally used as a troop assembly point.

It is located in the gap between the North Bastion and its Counterguard, a structure built in 1804.

The Counterguard provided defensive cover for the West Place of Arms, which was also fortified by a ditch into which a large caponier projected.

By 1885 there were three 32-pdr smoothbore guns, two 8-inch howitzers and four 64-pdr rifled muzzle loaders (RMLs).

The other guns were gradually replaced by RMLs in the final years of the 19th century.
