The site of a damaged funerary cairn. The partially gorse covered cairn is situated on the summit of a hill and has a diameter of 20.0 metres and an average height of 0.6 metres. Some 2.0 metres in from its outer edge, a concentric ditch 1.5 metres wide and 0.3 metres deep has been dug in modern times. The site has also been further trenched from east to west. Kermode refers to a 'circular platform of burnt bones and soil on Cronk Dhoo, Folieau, which is the north face of Slieau Lewaigue (and) is the reputed site of a Watch and Ward beacon. The 'Hill for the Day Watch' at 'Slewlage' is mentioned in 1627.

The site of a small mound which measures some 5 metres in diameter and is up to 0.3 metres high.  Some large stones lie on its side but it does not resemble a cairn.  It is located 45 metres from the cairn PRN 0589.00 "in the direction of the (Prince Albert) tower".

The site of a Watch and Ward beacon in Maughold parish.  The 'Hill for the Day Watch' at 'Slewlage' is mentioned in 1627.  Kermode refers to a 'circular platform of burnt bones and soil on Cronk Dhoo, Folieau, which is the North face of Slieau Lewaigue (and) is the reputed site of a Beacon'.

The site of a sheep fold of possible late medieval origin.

The site of five medieval shieling mounds, shown on a distibution map prepared by P.S. Gelling.

Bog oaks were retrieved from the peat here during ploughing in advance of planting a forestry plantation.

A square-shaped feature with rounded corners measuring 5.0 metres x 10.5 metres and orientated west to east. The height to the north is 1.0 metres. It is largely grass-covered but with many stones exposed.  The mound is situated well below the brow of the hill on the steeply falling side to the west. By its shape it is questionable if this is a burial mound and it may well be a natural feature.

The site of a Bronze Age bowl barrow.  Quartz blocks were once exposed in the mound which now appears to be a ditchless, turf-covered barrow with a diameter of 12.0 metres and a height of 0.6 metres.

Prehistoric stone axeheads. Two prehistoric stone axeheads were recovered from Slieau Whallian by CH Cowley. No further details concerning the circumstances of the discovery were recorded and the grid reference relates to the summit for indicative purposes only. The antiquary Charles Harry Cowley was an avid collector of worked flint and coarse stone artefacts revealed by agricultural activity, mainly on farms located around Peel, and occasionally from further afield. He was active from 1900 until 1943. His entire collection of artefacts, together with a daybook cataloguing his discoveries, was later donated to Manx National Heritage.

Prehistoric flint scatter. A single worked prehistoric flint was recovered from Slieau Whallian by CH Cowley, from 'near the top'. No further details concerning the circumstances of the discovery were recorded and the grid reference relates to the summit for indicative purposes only. The antiquary Charles Harry Cowley was an avid collector of worked flint and coarse stone artefacts revealed by agricultural activity, mainly on farms located around Peel, and occasionally from further afield. He was active from 1900 until 1943. His entire collection of artefacts, together with a daybook cataloguing his discoveries, was later donated to Manx National Heritage.

The findspot of a collection of early prehistoric flint artefacts from an area 'near top' of Slieau Whallian, recorded by Cowley as including "ornaments, arrowhead, axeheads".

The findspot of an early prehistoric flint arrowhead and thumb scraper held in the Cowley Collection at the Manx Museum.

The findspot of a white patinated flake found on Slieau Whallian by A. Knox circa 1926-1927.

Prehistoric flint scatter. A small quantity of worked prehistoric flint was recovered from Slieau Whallian by CH Cowley, from 'near Barnell'. No further details concerning the circumstances of the discovery were recorded and the grid reference relates to a point on the open hill midway between the summit and the top of the Barnell valley for indicative purposes only. The antiquary Charles Harry Cowley was an avid collector of worked flint and coarse stone artefacts revealed by agricultural activity, mainly on farms located around Peel, and occasionally from further afield. He was active from 1900 until 1943. His entire collection of artefacts, together with a daybook cataloguing his discoveries, was later donated to Manx National Heritage.

The site of a Bronze Age cairn on Slieau Curn.

The site of a late prehistoric fort recorded at Slieu Curn. It was visited by Dr Larch Garrad in 1983.  David Craine, writing in 1939 recorded the following information which may relate to this site; "At the entrance to the Glion Dhoo-the Glen of Ballaughwere two circular earthworks occupying dominating positions on the flanking hills. The western one on Slieau Curn was destroyed early in the 19th century. The other, the Castal Lajer (strong castle) still stands high up on Slieau Vollee." (Some Notes on the Parish of Ballaugh, in the Proceeding of the IoMNH&Asoc, vol 4 #3 1939).

Thirty-three shieling mounds have been recorded  by P.S. Gelling in area of a upland tributary valley which runs from the southeastern flank of Slieau Curn, eastwards to Glen Dhoo. There is also a complex series of small enclosures and connecting banks either side of the tributary valley which have not been planned in detail but are visible on some aerial photographs, though are partly disrupted by coniferous plantations.
