The cost of construction was over $ 71 million and this facility produced over 40 % of the U . S . Navy ' s munitions in World War II . The Navy chose to build in this location in part due the proximity to the area ' s three railroads ; the abundance of underground water , cheap natural gas and electricity ; the stable work force ; and the distance from either coast , since the Japanese or German bombers did not have the range to fly that far inland . Three other NAD plants were located in Burns City , Indiana ; McAlester , Oklahoma and the Hawthorne Naval Ammunition Depot in Hawthorne , Nevada . This New Jersey facility produced bombs , rockets , torpedoes , mines , bagged powder and all calibers of smaller ammunition . Wartime accidents .

Alfred of Spain is the Norman Lord of Stowey recorded in Domesday and the building of the castle is normally attributed to him or to his daughter Isabel . The earliest written reference to the castle is in a forged charter of 1154 . The top of the motte was excavated by amateurs in the 19th Century but no record was made of any finds . The mounds around the top of the motte are assumed to be spoil heaps from these excavations to clear the foundations of the keep , although it has also been suggested that they may be the remains of towers . The blue lias rubble foundations are the only visible structural remains of the castle which stood on the conical motte surrounded by a ditch approximately in circumference . The castle was destroyed in the 15th century , which may have been as a penalty for the local Lord Audley ' s involvement in the Second Cornish Uprising of 1497 led by Perkin Warbeck .
