The mound is grass covered but shows a considerable stone content with one large stone.
Ballelby Cross Slab (Manx Cross 49)
A large slab found at the site of a chapel and burial ground (IOMHER 1003.00) at Ballelby. The site was known as Keeill yn Chairn ('Chapel of the Lord') but is now ploughed down. The stone bears an unusual cross on one face. It is formed from five closely set squares, four representing a limb, and the fifth set in the centre to form the body of the cross. The outline of each square is incomplete, as if it were originally intended to be joined to its neighbour.

Ballelby, Dalby
Prehistoric flint scatter. A single worked prehistoric flint was recovered from Ballelby by CH Cowley. No further details concerning the discovery were recorded and the grid reference relates to the farmstead 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.
