Glenmooar, Ballahowin Burial Ground

Archaeology

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...'.
