A group of seven mounds annotated as 'Cairns' are shown here on the 1870 1:2500 scale Ordnance Survey map in the fields numbered as Plots 648 and 1478. All but one of these were reportedly levelled in 1895.
This barrow is a very spread, grass covered bowl barrow, covered with small stones but not more excessively than the rest of the field. It has a diameter of approximate 14.0 metres and its height averages 0.3 metres.

This barrow is a ditchless, grass and gorse covered bowl barrow with diameter of 9.0 metres and height of 0.7 metres. A wall crosses it in the northwest to the northwest of which it has been ploughed out. A few loose stones apparently from the wall lie on top of the mound.

The findspot of a flint scatter which consisted of unspecified flint pieces as well as an ovoid sandstone "implement" with hour glass perforations measuring 6.3 cm by 5.3 cm.
A flat rounded slab, with a lightly incised cross on one face. The end of each limb terminates in a small cross-bar. At least one other cross is scratched into the gaps between the arms.
This three-storey house is constructed of cement rendered masonry walls and has a pitched slate roof. The third floor is set into the roof space and the small rectangular gable windows are augmented by a featured group of three windows over the main entrance. The middle window has a raised semi-circular head in keeping with the roof which is peaked at that point to accommodate the central window. The other windows in the farm are all well proportioned rectangular vertical sash design regularly spaced in an otherwise plain facade. The front entrance is delineated by a flush porch pair of columns (pilaster) with beam over. The side of the main building has a one storey wing extension in the same style. The house is set in a low walled garden with greenhouse. No interior inspection has been made. The house appears in reasonable repair. The building represents a rather pleasantly proportioned example of a middle class farm house of the mid nineteenth century. There are a number of such buildings on the island not each of which should be listed since the main justification would be to ensure that one remained in close to its original condition for the sake of posterity. In that context the house at Ballachurry is as good as any but it is felt that a better example could be used on a representative basis to preserve a farm complex of buildings which at Ballachurry are rather mundane.
Late Mesolithic worked flint.
Prehistoric worked flints recovered during fieldwalking (OS Field 1456 / IoMG Field 414682) in 1987. The material is of heavy-bladed character.
Neolithic worked flint.
Prehistoric worked flints recovered during farming operations (OS Fields 1399 and 1400 / IoMG Field 414200) at various times by A & S Clucas and deposited in the Manx Museum in 1987. The material is of later Neolithic 'Ronaldsway' character.
