A Bronze Age stone cist containing a beaker of Clarke's group N3 (Corpus No 374) was found in 1919 by Mr J.F. Cowley of Baroose during the ploughing of a field behind Baroose Cottages, about 75 metres to the left of the highroad from Douglas to Laxey, on the south end of a ridge, about 110 metres above sea level. The upper edges of the cist were about 23 centimetres below the surface, the lid slab having been removed. All the slabs of the cist were removed, after measurement, to the adjoining field fence. The beaker was found in fragments but was carefully 'reconstructed' by Canon Quine and later by Mr A. Knox. Quantities of charcoal, implying cremation were also found in the cist and two flints, one a small rude scraper and the other a slightly-chipped nodule.
