Ballavarry Burial Mound
Bronze Age burial mound. This substantial burial mound still survives to a height of 3m. It stands by the roadside, in the angle formed with the private lane to Ballavarry farm, on a low hill which is prominent from all directions. The mound has a diameter of 15m, and is almost certainly truncated by the proximity of the roads and by agriculture, but is safeguarded by a modern revetment of drystone walling. An antiquarian investigation in the late 19th century recovered a burial urn, which is now lost.

Ballavartyn Keeill
The possible site of an early medieval keeill or chapel.  The remains of stone walling, thought to belong to a keeill site, was discovered circa 1868 during farming excavations in a field by the high road and nearly opposite 'the Gate'.   A low mound, not marked on Ordnance Survey plans, indicated the position but when Kermode visited the site (circa 1918) the field was under crop and further digging was not permissible.
