Langness

Archaeology

Some small and low barrows reportedly centred on SC 29256713 with traces of foundations. The site is partly occupied by a large modern hotel and partly by a golf course. There is now no visible trace of a barrow or of any foundations other than modern ones. There are many small sand mounds on the golf course which may have given rise to the report of barrows. There are no known barrows on the Isle of Man which could be classified as small. No finds were reported when the hotel or the golf course were constructed. The 'small and low barrows' seen by Oswald may be associated with Langness rabbit warren (centred SC 290668) mentioned as 'Conney-warren' in 1687.
