I'm sure that it is - can't see if it's a TC or not.  Lovingly cherished in the past judging by the stickers and extra lights etc.  I wonder how they came to be abandoned  :-(

Middle one is a 1500 FWD I think and reckon the yellow one will be an early 1850.

Where are they?  I'd def be interested in some bits from the 1500 . . . .

I'm not so sure it has - no damage to the bumper or side of wing, I reckon it's just falling apart from extreme rustyness, or possibly when moved to where they have been photographed . . .

They're near Germansweek in Devon, I could try and find the name of the farm they're near if you wish.
