Battery rocks are a rocky outcrop situated to the west of the harbour of Penzance, Cornwall, UK. The rocks take their name from a gun battery that was situated there from 1739 following a petition by Penzance Borough council for protection from French naval attacks. The rocks are currently home to the Jubilee pool (an art deco outdoor swimming pool) and the Penzance war memorial.
