A Viking silver hoard was found about 1885 at West Nappin. The finds were dispersed soon after discovery, and part of a silver armlet (Manx Museum No 4396) from the hoard was later thought to be a stray find. Eight silver coins from the hoard have now been identified, including five Hiberno-Norse coins, two Hiberno-Manx and one English penny. It is thought that the hoard was deposited about AD1040.
