| Battery locomotive or Simplex perhaps? |

As they are not working near a convenient source of electricity, I would expect this to be powered by an IC engine, so quite possible it's a Simplex. |

Originally an eleventh century Norman motte and bailey castle. The twelfth century shell keep is shown to good advantage here. It was substantially altered between the sixteenth and nineteenth centuries. The building is listed Grade I |
