That's a great picture of the castle.

The "Castleview" restaurant no longer exists, but you can still see the castle if you're around Barrington.     From Barrington, take NW Hwy (US 14)  northwest about 6 miles to Fox River Grove.  Turn left on Foxmoor Av, turn right on Ashbury, and then turn right on Concord to go by the castle.  (This is a tiny village, so the distance between these turns is short.)

Best wishes,

Jack
