The remains of a kerbed Bronze Age barrow can still be seen in the field here. It is a ditchless, grass-covered bowl barrow which has been much burrowed by rabbits. The diameter of the barrow is 12.0 metres and it still stands to approximately 0.8 metres high. A circle of some 10 large white quartz blocks which form the kerb of the barrow remain in place, the largest of which is 1.9 metres long, 0.7 metres wide and 0.9 metres high.
The feature is known locally as 'the Old Churchyard'. A scatter of Mesolithic "Heavy-blade" type flints have been picked up in the same field (PRN 0422.10).
The findspot of a Neolithic flint scatter. These include worked flints, flakes, blades, including a Ronaldsway type hump-backed scraper. Charcoal and an iron concretion were also found here.
The site of a post-medieval horse engine. The circular horsewalk is shown on the 1870 1:2500 Ordnance Survey map at the northern end of a long outbuilding.
A possible Neolithic settlement site, identified through the excavation of a rubbish dump which included Ronaldsway type flints and pottery sherds. The site was originally identified by Mr Alan Skillan during fieldwalking. The material was found in a succession of inter-connected pits deliberately cut in the sandy subsoil, and included a number of typical hump-backed scrapers, and pieces from some fourteen pots. The most interesting find was a slate plaque with lightly-inscribed geometric decoration on both faces. Only a single arrow-head was recovered and that was found during field walking.
Modern chapel.
The present Methodist chapel at Ballabeg is the result of the substantial extension of an earlier Wesleyan chapel constructed in 1854.
The old chapel was provided with a new entrance at the north end, and the extension, a taller and grander structure, was built on to the southern gable in 1900.
The older chapel is now used as a hall, its north entrances blocked, and the building served by a single entrance porch.
Modern chapel.
The original Wesleyan chapel at Ballabeg was constructed in 1854.
Following the construction of a new chapel abutting the southern gable in 1900, the old chapel was used as a Sunday school and now serves as the church hall.
Modern chapel.
The original Wesleyan chapel at Ballabeg was redeveloped in 1900 through the construction of a taller and grander structure built on to the southern gable.
The older structure became the Sunday school, whilst the new building served as the chapel, with a separate doorway: this porch has since been removed and replaced by a new combined entrance.
A Viking Age silver Coin Hoard consisting of Hiberno-Norse Coins was found here in 1834. The hoard consists mainly of Phase III Dublin pennies and appears to have been concealed at the end of the 1040s. It was found in one or more 'small urns' at a place called 'Struan Juneen', in or near old iron workings. The hoard is supposed to have been largely dispersed in England but two of dark-patinated coins survive in the Manx Museum.
This was one of two distinct and very different Viking Age silver coin hoards unearthed in successive years at Ballaberna and Park Lewellyn. Previously the hoards had been recorded as one find.
Prehistoric flint scatter.
A small quantity of worked prehistoric flint was recovered at Ballabooie by CH Cowley on several different occasions, from a field he named as 'Bully Mooar Shiar'.
The site has not been positively identified, but must lie close to Bully Mooar (see PRN 0912) and the grid reference relates to the latter site 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.
