Cronk ny Urn Burial Mound, Begoade
Archaeology
A possible barrow existed in this area, where a flint axehead and an urn were found. P.M.C. Kermode recorded 'Sites of Tumuli near the avenue to Begoade house. One about 40 yards (the other 200 yards) SW of the house in a field called Cronk ny Urn. Flint found and Urn since broken and thrown away'. It was also recorded that 'Mr Corkhill told me a larger one (flint axe) had been found in his Father's time, along with pottery, in a field since called 'Cronk Urn''.
