Шаблон:For Шаблон:Infobox military unit The 83rd Regiment of Foot (1757–1763) was a short-lived infantry regiment in the British Army which was raised in Ireland in 1757 to counter the Spanish Invasion of Portugal of 1762, an offshoot of the Seven Years' War.[1]

After being posted to the Iberian Peninsula in 1762 the regiment was disbanded in Ireland following the Treaty of Paris in 1763.

The Colonel-Commandants of the Regiment were General Sir John Saunders Sebright, Bt. (1758–1760) and General Bigoe Armstrong (1760–1763}.
