I would like to explore Beaumaris Castle but I can't find it via the NEWWIZ (New map) command but its not in my Castles folder or Perspectives one, yet the symbols are sitting in the Perspectives folder. Is there a template or is it simply a symbol set?

It's actually a set of maps and their accompanying symbols.
The simplest way to explore the Castle's Annual is to navigate to wherever you have the Annuals stored (usually in ProgramData/ProFantasy/CC3Plus ), then go to /Annual/Issue 149 – Beaumaris Castle once you've done that. Load any of the FCW files, and you'll be able to navigate to all the rest using the hyperlinks in each floorplan level, and the 3D view version of the whole castle. You'll also find the PDF Mapping Guide for this issue in the same folder, which explains more about the whole project, and the Castle itself.

It is Annual 149, @HelenAA (2019 Annual). Hope that helps.

LATER:
I had to go via the ProgramData folder to get to the files which threw me, but I had to then go via Perspectives to get at the symbols. Dunno why they landed there as I accept defaults when I install anything.
Also, in addition to the symbols, there are some beautiful fills in the Castle subfolder. I use them a lot when designing top down fortifications.
