The Grade II listed Yarborough monument was erected in 1849 by public subscription in memory of Charles Anderson Pelham, 2nd Earl of Yarborough.
After his sudden death in 1846, the committee of the Squadron proposed a ‘Nautical Monument’ or ‘Sea Mark’ in his memory and contributed £200 towards the cost – the Yarborough Monument was the result.This was originally been erected further to the west on top of the Bembridge Down but was moved to its current position in 1867 to make way for the Bembridge Down Fort There's a cafe across the road with seating - hot and cold drinks, cakes and snacks plus The Culver Haven Inn
