Lhergydhoo
Archaeology
Prehistoric flint scatter.
A small quantity of worked prehistoric flint was recovered from Lhergydhoo by CH Cowley, from the 'Field next to Wild Appletree Field'.
The description appears to relate to the eastern part of OS Field no. 1108, now divided by the railway line and centred at the grid reference provided (see also PRN 3330).
The antiquary Charles Harry Cowley was an avid collector of worked flint and coarse stone artefacts revealed by agricultural activity, mainly on farms located around Peel, and occasionally from further afield. He was active from 1900 until 1943. His entire collection of artefacts, together with a daybook cataloguing his discoveries, was later donated to Manx National Heritage.
