Prehistoric cup-marked stone.
PMC Kermode (director of the Manx Museum 1922-32) recorded a cup-marked stone found at the bottom of a pile of stones forming the NW end of cairn, approximately 500 yards SE of Glenlough farmhouse.
This location would appear to indicate that the cairn lay approximately at the grid reference provided, towards the NE boundary of OS Field no. 1484. There is no sign of any such feature today.
Kermode records the stone as measuring 350 by 500mm (Ms Notebook VIII, p.2).
Undated worked stone.
A granite hammerstone, probably of prehistoric date, was found in the roadway to the west of the entrance to Glenlough in 1937.
The stone was found whilst excavating for a telegraph pole at the side of the road, 450-600mm below the road surface.
The object is in the Manx National Heritage collections, accession no. 1954-3754.
Modern ceramic marble.
A 19th century ceramic marble was found by LS Garrad (Manx Museum 1964-96) in the field known as Thie Craine (OS Field no 1389). The find and the field name indicate the former presence of a dwelling. No further information is recorded and the grid reference indicates the centre of the field.
Modern horsewalk.
The Ordnance Survey First Edition 1:2500 map of 1868 shows a horsewalk at this location.
This 19th century horsewalk was formerly roofed. It partially survives today.
Modern firing range.
The Ordnance Survey 1:2500 First Edition mapping of 1867-8 bears the annotation 'Rifle Range' centred at the grid reference provided. Additional annotations record 'Target' and 'Butt' close together on the south side of the valley.
The range was used to train volunteer reservists.
No surface remains are now apparent which would indicate the position of firing points, which the main annotation implies were on the north side of the valley, although a hedgeline is located 600 yards from the target at SC34577793.
Modern firing range target.
The Ordnance Survey 1:2500 First Edition mapping of 1867-8 bears the annotation 'Rifle Range'. A 'Target' is also annotated and marked at the grid reference provided. This is now covered in undergrowth.
Modern firing range butt.
The Ordnance Survey 1:2500 First Edition mapping of 1867-8 bears the annotation 'Rifle Range'. A 'Butt' is also annotated and marked at the grid reference provided. This is now covered in undergrowth.
The findspot of a flint scatter collected by Cowley in the field numbered 997 on the 1869 1:2500 scale Ordnance Survey map. It includes a stone axehead and flint arrowheads, scrapers, beveller, chisels, a knife and spearheads.
The site of the former Glenmooar Corn Mill. It has origins as early as the 16th century, as it is mentioned in manorial records dating to AD1515. The mill has been converted for modern use and the mill leat also adapted as part of a fish farm.
A burial ground apparently stood 'on the Western edge of the natural plateau on which stands Tynwald Hill, about 193 yards West-South-West of the mound (King Orry's Grave)... Here, at a height above sea-level of about 145 foot, lintel graves have been found in ploughing, and from the description given of them by Mr Matthews, and the stones found in them, now lying in the hedge, they appear to have been Christian' but no keeill was found in association with them...'.
Modern watermill.
The Ordnance Survey 1:2500 First Edition mapping of 1867-8 depicts a water mill at this location, annotated as 'T. Mill'.
The building has been demolished and the site returned to agriculture.
Modern millpond.
The Ordnance Survey 1:2500 First Edition mapping of 1867-8 depicts a water mill at this location, annotated as 'T. Mill'. The millpond is shown in two parts, suggesting that it may have been extended at some point. It is fed by a stream, and is dammed at its SW, downstream end.
The millpond is now drained, and the area covered in undergrowth.
Modern mill leat.
The Ordnance Survey 1:2500 First Edition mapping of 1867-8 depicts a water mill at this location, annotated as 'T. Mill'.
A leat is shown leading along the north side of the valley from the millpond to the mill. It extends a distance of 100m. An overflow sluice protects the mill. A short tailrace leads water back into the stream downslope from the mill.
The leat is now filled in and the ground returned to agriculture. It is intermittently visible as a cropmark.
The grid reference relates to the midpoint of the leat.
A post-medieval corn mill associated with Kerromooar farm. A building and dammed pond are shown on the 1869 1:2500 Ordnance Survey map at this location.
