A fragment of a stone axehead was recovered from the southern end of Ordnance Survey Field no. 1721 at Ballakeigan, Arbory. Other flint and stone tools of similar date have also been found.


It is noted during the excavation of the Iron Age site of Ballacagen in the adjoining field to the south by Dr G. Bersu in the 1940s that signs of prehistoric activity, including worked flints, were recovered.


The axehead is in the Manx National Heritage collections, accession no. 1988-0642.
