This small fragment from the face of a slab was found amongst stones from the north wall of the churchyard in 1965. It bears a number of runic letters, but the reading is problematic; only the word 'his' can be made out with certainty.
This incomplete slab was found, broken in two, during renovation work at Braddan Church in the 1990s. It bears an incomplete runic inscription along one edge: only the word 'made' can be translated.
A fine wheel-headed slab, which bears on one face an equal-limbed cross and a ring with broad borders. The upper limb has a representation of Daniel in the lions' den. The rest of the cross is filled with complicated plait work. The edges of the ring are decorated with subtly different plaits, and each quadrant contains dog-like animals. This stone is first recorded in the 1800s when it was described "lying against Braddan church". It stands 1.7m high and 1m wide and has a tapered base showing that it was originally inserted into a socket stone that allowed it to stand upright.
The slab has been cut to create the outline of a wheel-headed cross. The shaft and rear face of the stone are completely undecorated. This focusses all attention on the round head of the stone which contains an equal-armed cross. The four limbs are connected by two concentric bands of interlace, the space in between filled with four dog-like beasts; the bands and the animal in each quadrant are subtly different from the next.
The upper arm of the cross shows a pair of beasts either side of a human face, and has long been presumed to represent the biblical tale of Daniel in the Lions' Den. The remaining arms and the centre of the cross are filled with an intricate, multi-strand plait, which in places is slightly irregular. Other instances of these wheel-headed crosses may be found in neighbouring parishes: Lonan has a near-perfect example (Manx Cross 73), while a substantially less complete fragment can be seen nearby at Onchan (Manx Cross 74).
This wheel-headed slab was stood by the gate by the west entrance into the churtchyard; its earlier history in unknown. The slab is wheel-headed, and bears on one face a small equal-limbed cross within a wide ring, which is supported on a broad shaft. The space between the limbs is perforated. The limbs themselves bear a rough figure-of-eight design, and the ring is decorated with twist-and-ring pattern. The shaft is decorated with a loop-plait. The other face shows an incised cross with curved and expanding limbs, bordered by a fine line. A small ring is cut in the centre.
The site of a medieval iron working site discovered during excavations when a new vicarage was built. Finds included a silver penny and a merels board.
The fragment of a cross from Braddan church, possibly a flake from the middle of the face. The original has been lost, but a cast is kept at the Manx Museum. It is of Scandinavian date and is recorded as Manx Cross No 137, possibly derived from cross No. 136.
An early medieval, crude cross carved onto greenstone, broken in two, measuring about 61cm to 76cm high and 46cm wide by 2.5cm thick, which stood here about 1857, when only the lower portion was standing in its socket. The cross has long since disappeared. It was thought to be pre-Scandanavian and was numbered as Manx Cross No. 20 (12).
An early medieval broken cross slab, with a Latin ring cross incised on one face. It measures 91.5 centimetres x 16.5 centimetres x 15 centimetres and is kept at Braddan church and comes from the west wall of the church tower. It is thought to be pre-Scandanavian in date and is numbered as Manx Cross No 63 (36).
An early medieval broken cross slab, with a ring cross on one face. It measures 87.6 centimetres x 51 centimetres x 6.45 centimetres and is kept at Braddan church and comes from the west wall of the church tower. It is thought to be pre-Scandanavian in date and is numbered as Manx Cross No 64 (37).
A 9th or 10th century wheel-headed sculptured cross in the Celtic tradition, with an equal armed cross, interlace and biblical scenes on one face. The upper panel bears a scene which has been identified as representing the jaws of Hell, but has sometimes been miscalled 'Daniel in the lion's den'. It was found in 1841 and is kept at Braddan parish church. It measures 171.5 centimetres high x 94 centimetres maximum width x 51 centimetres minimum width and 10 centimetres thick. It is numbered as Manx Cross No 72 (59).
A collection of crosses and cross slabs kept at Braddan parish church, dated collectively from the 6th or 7th to the 12th century. They include the Manx crosses numbered; rune stones Nos 112, 135, 136 and 138. No 176. Thorleif's Cross (No 135) and Oddr's Cross (No 136) are said to be of the zoomorphic Jellinge/Mannen style according to Wilson.

19 names listed alphabetically; Second World War. Column and cross made of Manx slate. The column is on a Manx stone base of three tiers, on which the names are added. The column is topped by the cross of St Brendan.
The memorial was unveiled on Sunday 4 September 1921 by Mr G. Drinkwater, M.L.C., J.P. The vicar of the parish, Rev. W. A. Rushworth, M.A., was also present. Mr H. Dunn, an ex-sergeant, conducted the sounding of the 'Last Post'. The first wreath was laid by the Captain of the Parish. The memorial was previously located in the centre of the main Douglas to Peel road, at its junction with Saddle Road. On 12 May 1961, it was moved to its present location by the side of the road in St Brendan's church grounds, as it was considered a hazard to the increased flow of traffic on the road.
The cross was designed and carved by Mr T.H. Royston of Douglas, who based his design on an existing Runic memorial stone within the Old Braddan churchyard. The memorial is of the same blue slate as the old Braddan cross.
