A Bronze Age burial cist with two compartments was found in OS Field no.1385 (see 1869 1:2500 scale map).  The site lies at the north end of a slight summit on a ridge extending north from Staarvey through Lhergydhoo to Knocksharry, between the Switchback and Staarvey roads.


The cist was excavated by Megaw in 1947: a Bronze Age collared urn of Longworth Secondary Series, NW Style, Form I/II, standing 44cm high and with a decorated collar, was found inverted over a cremation in one of the two compartments of the cist. 


The second compartment held the remains of a second urn, mainly the lower portions and a few sherds with incised lattice pattern. The collared urn is held at the Manx Museum (Accession No 7247).
