The findspot of a looped palstave axe of late Bronze Age date found at the foot of Orrysdale Brooghs about 1916. The axehead is made of leaded bronze and could have been manufactured locally. It is now kept at the Manx Museum (Accession No. 1954-0799).
The findspot of a grooved, yellow-glazed medieval pottery-pitcher handle. It was reported by W. Cubbon and may have been found 'north of nickie's orchard.'
Two distinct and very different Viking Age coin hoards were unearthed in successive years at Park Lewellyn and Ballaberna.
A large number of silver Anglo Saxon & Hiberno-Norse coins was found in 1835 in a ram's horn at Park Lewellyn - a common enclosure at the foot of North Barrule mountain (SC 439900). The coins were sent from the island to escape any claim upon them. They appear to have been in fine preservation and included one of Ethelred (979-1016) and one of Sihtric (921-926).
Train gives the date of the find as 1835 and states it was made by men employed by Mrs Looney when working a stone quarry near Ballaberna. Seven coins of the original hoard were seen in Manx Museum in 1974 and consisted of an a Ethelraed II penny of 'Long Cross' type and six Hiberno-Norse 'Long Cross' pence; two with Sihtric's name. The hoard appeared to have been concealed about AD1030.
The findspot of a Mesolithic flint scatter (PRN 1205.00) and later pottery sherds from an area to north of the slipway sited 235 metres north of the end of the road. It included sherds of Neolithic Ronaldsway type and Bronze Age pottery (PRN 1205.20), along with a hearth sample which included a micaceous sherd.
The findspot of a Mesolithic flint scatter (PRN 1205.00) and later pottery sherds from an area to north of the slipway sited 235 metres north of the end of the road. It included sherds of Neolithic Ronaldsway type (PRN 1205.10) and Bronze Age pottery, along with a hearth sample which included a micaceous sherd.
The findspot of pottery sherds of Neolithic Ronaldsway and 'megalithic' type, a rubbing stone and Mesolithic Heavy-blade type flints (PRN 1203.00). These were collected from an area of eroding occupation levels sectioned by Roger Dackombe, 130-140 metres north of the end of the road.
A broken Late Bronze Age looped and socketed axehead was found 'under the shingle' at Port Mooar in 1921. It is now kept in the Manx Museum (Accession No. 1954-0804).
The findspot of a vessel made out of a single trunk or piece of timber found in the bank of stream in 1984. It is of unknown date but may be prehistoric.
The findspot of part of a Neolithic or Bronze Age stone axehead. It was originally about 23cm long but only the cutting edge survives. It was donated by P.M.C. Kermode to the Manx Museum (Accession No. 1954-0613).
The findspot of a granite pebble, quite possibly a glacial erratic but somewhat irregular in shape and with possibly worn ends suggesting use as a tool. The stone measures 75 mm x 50 mm.
A 'small and very rudely formed' dug-out canoe of Neolithic date was found at Seafield, Santon. It was found while draining near Santon river, possibly on the Malew side and stored for years at glen Grenaugh, before it was moved to Castle Rushen. Dr L.S. Garrad thought it may have been a trough for a horizontal mill or for boiling water.
The findspot of a water-worn Neolithic or Bronze Age perforated stone axe-hammer. It is pierced by a smooth, barrel-shaped hole, not counter-sunk, and thought to be artificial. It is kept in the Manx Museum (Accession No. 1954-1252).
The findspot of a perforated slate disc, which measured 83 mm diameter by 10 mm thick. It had a notch in its edge but was otherwise smooth, with hourglass perforation through the centre. It may have been a loomweight.
The findspot of a gold coin, believed to be a noble of Edward III (1327-77), which was found a few years before 1845 at Slegaby farm. Train describes it well and states it was then in the collection of Sam S. Rogers, Douglas.
