Ballawhannell Keeill
Archaeology
The site of an early medieval keeill or chapel thought to have been in use between circa AD500 and circa AD1000. The keeill enclosure is shown in the field numbered Plot 416 on the 1870 1:2500 Ordnance Survey map, measuring approximetely 18 metres east to west by 13 metres. All features have been ploughed out and no visible trace of the chapel or of a burial ground enclosure remains. A boulder which was recorded here was suggested to have been the keeill font.
