I've already decided to call it 'Fred' (Frederick) after my grandfather. Lovely bit of kit, the kind of engineering you rarely get nowadays, mostly metal, mostly manual and just works.

The ruins of Halsnøy Abbey with the later farm house in the background.
The Abbey was one of the richest monasteries in medieval Norway. Founded in 1163 by earl and crusader Erling Skakke to secure the blessing of the church in promoting his son Magnus as regent.
It was rebuilt in Gothic style about 1300 and eventually dissolved in 1536 during the Reformation and assets were confiscated by the Crown.
The site was later sold and in 1841 the then farmer demolished the remains of the abbey church and built the current farm house.
The buildings were bought by Sunnhordland Museum in 1956 and are now run as museum and artist’s residence. (Source Wikipedia)
