A yard light is an outdoor light mounted on a pole or building to illuminate a yard, driveway, or other exterior area around a home or farm.
The term is most common in rural areas where properties are large and street lighting absent: The yard light came on automatically at dusk.
Also called a security light or dusk-to-dawn light.
