 | | Tutbury Castle is rumoured to have been used during the second world war, as a small intelligence office, being her majesty’s property this is possible, and the cover of a farm, is a good one. |
 | | RAF Fauld was less than a mile from the castle, and was used for ammunitions storage, however when an accident occurred, the base blew up, and was the second largest explosion in the war, the largest being Hiroshima. |
 | | The castle continued to be used as a farm up until 1952, although open to the public, it was home to a range of farmyard animals, which artists of the time clearly captured. |
