This is Caerlaverock Castle, near Dumfries - notable for being the only triangular castle in the UK. The earliest parts of the building date to the C13th.
In earlier times, the Cumbrian king Gwenddoleu ap Ceidio died at the Battle of Arthuret, in 573, in a fight over Caer-Laverock. This drove his bard, Myrddin Wyllt, insane and he run off into the woods, an act that possibly inspired the character of Merlin in Arthurian legend. -

#OldTownME council presses ahead with ban on #datacenters
by Kasey Turman, September 8, 2026
"The Old Town City Council approved the first step toward a temporary ban on data centers in the city.
"Councilors discussed the draft of the short-term ban, or moratorium, on data centers in Old Town’s industrial zones during their meeting Tuesday, and voted unanimously to continue the process at a special council meeting on Sept. 21.
"Maine communities have brought forward bans on data centers throughout the year to slow down possible projects and allow time to learn about the economic and environmental effects they can have on a community before enacting policies or long-term bans. Old Town’s ban was brought forward as a 'proactive opportunity' to learn and create policy before a center is proposed to be built in the city, Councilor Zachary Wyles said.
"The proposed ban would last 180 days and be retroactive to Tuesday’s meeting.
Old Town could be a desirable city for a data center because of its industrial zones and history of having businesses like Nine Dragons Paper and Old Town Canoe, Council President Christian Pushor said. With centers being proposed in other areas of the state, it makes sense for the council to temporarily ban the developments while studying the economic and #environmental effects they could have, Pushor said."Read more:
