Interesting that the basic design hasn't changed in 800 years. I guess if it works, don't fix it.
A padlock too? I thought those were a relatively new invention (century wise anyway).

Another reason to visit the beautiful city of Perth - the Black Watch Museum at Balhousie Castle is reason enough.
