Park Llewellyn Coin Hoard

A large silver coin hoard reported from Park Llewellyn in 1835.

Also recorded as: Park Lewellyn hoard; North Barrule coin hoard

What the evidence supports

The IOMHER account records Anglo-Saxon and Hiberno-Norse coins and the unusual report that the hoard was found in a ram's horn. Much of the material was dispersed, and the broad map area must not be read as a precise or accessible findspot.

Location and precision

Approximate area · radius 900 m. Rounded locality derived from the IOMHER historic record at the foot of North Barrule.

Why this public geometry is safe: The historical findspot has been rounded to the stated uncertainty and does not imply access or a searchable target.

Legal note

On the Isle of Man, metal-detector use in a protected area requires written Manx National Heritage consent, and digging or excavation on any land to search for archaeological objects requires an MNH licence. Landowner permission alone is not enough.
