Following additions to the tomcat/conf/web.xml fixed the problem.
We probably need to make a note of this on the jspwiki docs (min
requirement tomcat 8.5; + ... ) ?
<init-param>
<param-name>compilerSourceVM</param-name>
<param-value>1.8</param-value>
</init-param>
<init-param>
<param-name>compilerTargetVM</param-name>
<param-value>1.8</param-value>
</init-param>
