Government primary school in the village was constructed and started in 1955 and master Mehar Chand from Budhlada was the first teacher. For a few years earlier to it a single teacher taught students in Dharmshala near the Mitha Khooh and before that education was given by some pundits or dera pujaries in the village or one had to go to nearby towns for education. The school was upgraded from time to time and is now High School. Its buildings and grounds cover the two old Deras, and deep pond which was filled mainly by levelling the Deras.

Located about one and half kilometer from the Bus Stand and almost equidistance from Borawal, Gurne Kalan and Biroke Khurad is a historical Sikh Gurdwara named Dharmeana (ਧਰਮੇਆਣਾ) It is built on the place where Shaheed Baba Dharam Singh Sekhon fought with the slaughterers of cows, in spite of cutting down his head. He continued swaying his sword and remained in the saddle of his horse he was riding even when his head dropped to the ground at this place. The horse doorsrned towards the village and his torso dropped near the village, about one and half kilometer from where he was fighting. This place is named Baba Marh (ਬਾਬਾ ਮੱੜ੍ਹ) and a gurudwara has been built here too.

It is one of two gates that were used to protect the town from foreign invaders. It is the one remaining. None of the houses on the periphery had door to the outside all houses opened in the streets leading to these gates. These were closed in an emergency. When peace returned people made more ways leading to outside. One on the south side was called morebar (ਮੋਰੇ ਬਾਰ)

The haveli of Maharaja Hira Singh, the ruler of Nabha state in Punjab, was located in the middle of Borawal but is now in shambles. Borawal was the maternal ancestral village of Maharaja Hira Singh who ascended the Nabha throne in the absence of any direct descendant of Raja Bhagwan Singh who died young from tuberculosis in 1871. Many persons from Borawal were then employed in Nabha State by Hira Singh.

Two wells (Punjabi: ਖੂਹ) are located there. The Khaara Khoo (ਖਾਰਾ ਖੂਹ) is saline, and the Mittha Khoo (ਮਿੱਠਾ ਖੂਹ) has drinkable water. These preserved wells are no longer in use.
