House name	Description
Frenchgrove	A house marked as 'in ruins' on the 1915 edition of the 6 inch Ordnance Survey map. The Irish Tourist Association file describes Frenchgrove as the residence of the Blakes, later of the Frenches and finally of a man named Eager, a Dublin banker. No house of more than £3 valuation was recorded in Griffith's Valuation for the townland of Frenchgrove. A modern house now occupies the site with the remaining evidence of the old building.

The Heath	At the time of Griffith's Valuation, it was the property of Henry Blake and valued at £10. Described in 1863, when sold by the Blakes to the Tighes, as a substantial dwelling house with two reception rooms and six bedrooms, all in good repair. It is now a ruin.
Doonmacreena	In 1786 Wilson notes "Dunmacrene" as the seat of Mr. Blake. The sales rental of 1851 states that the old house at Doonmacreena was the residence of Mr Blake's ancestor 'now in ruins'.
Woodstock	There is no substanial house marked on the first Ordnance Survey map for the townland of Woodstock.
Castlemagarret	In 1786, Wilson refers to CastleMacGarret as the seat of D.G. Browne, "a handsome seat, surrounded with one of the best wooded demeses in Ireland". The house, built in 1694, was destroyed by fire in August 1811 and a replacement built in the Tudor Gothic style. Robert Graham, in his journal of September 1836, refers to the fire and that "the present house is constructed out of the old offices, but is amazingly comfortable as far as it goes". Held in fee by Geoffrey Browne at the time of Griffith's Valuation, when it was valued at £25. The house functioned as a nursing home after it was sold by the Brownes in 1964. It is still extant but unoccupied. In 2015 it was offered for sale.

Castlegrove	Originally a Blake house, it was occupied by the Lewins from 1888. Wilson refers to Castle-Grove as the seat of Mr. Blake in 1786. It would seem that this house was replaced in the nineteenth century as, although listed in Leets directory of 1814, the sale rental of 1852 records Castlegrove as a mansion house erected 'within the last twelve years'. It included a ballroom, oak staircase and numerous bedrooms. It was bought by John William Cannon. The sale rental includes a lithograph of the house. Castlegrove was burnt in 1922 and is now a ruin.

The original house is not extant.

Quarrymount	Built in the 1830s, Quarrymount [also known as Kilcloony] was the home of the Bodkin family in the latter half of the 19th century and is reputed to have replaced an early home in the nearby townland of Ardnagall. The house was leased to Edward O'Kelly in 1881 for 31 years. By the early 20th century it was in the hands of the Congested Districts' Board and passed onto the Land Commission who sold the house and 220 acres to the Gordon family. In 1971 Henry Gordon sold the house and remaining 20 acres. The house has been extensively renovated in the early 21st century by the Costellos.

However by the time of Griffith's Valuation there was no house of more than £2 valuation in the townland of Kilcloony. There is no house at this location on the 25-inch Ordnance map of the 1890s.

Part of Blindwell also belonged to the Agricultural Institute.
Ballygaddy	Occupied by Kirwan esq in the 1770s and in 1786. It was the residence of Thomas Lally in 1814 and, from the 1830s, of John Daly, who held it from Nesbitt Kirwan. The house was valued at £5 at the time of Griffith's Valuation. The site is now occupied by farmbuildings.

A herd's house occupied by Thomas Higgins who held it from James Higgins is recorded in the townland of Carrowpadden East at the time of Griffith's Valuation. It was valued at almost £5. This property appears to have been built after the first Ordnance Survey map was published. There is still a house extant at the site.
