Ballaqueeney, Rushen
Archaeology
An unworked, water-worn slab found re-used in a lintel grave close to a chapel (PRN 0024). The site was disturbed during the construction of the nearby railway line in 1874.
The slab bears an inscription in ogham, 'Dovaidona maqui Droata' - (the stone) of Dubaed, son of Droata - which runs up the angle of one edge of the stone and round the top.
The stone is now displayed in the Manx Museum.
