Fort Buckley was a defensive fort built in Wellington, New Zealand in 1885, overlooking the port of Wellington and Wellington Harbour. The remains of the fort are listed as a Category 1 Historic Place by Heritage New Zealand.
The fort included two rifled 64 pounder muzzle-loading guns, which had a range of about three kilometres.
The fort was named after Patrick Buckley, an Irish New Zealand soldier, lawyer, and politician.
An original photo of the guns is shown on the Capital Defence site - "Sixty four pound gun at Fort Buckley, Kaiwharawhara, Wellington" 1886. A site map of the original fort is also shown on the Capital Defence website.
During World War 2 an anti-aircraft gun was installed on the former caretaker's cottage area located in the slopes above the gun-pits and midway up the overall site.
