House name	Description
Sylaun	Descriptions indicate that Sylaun House, which was valued at £7 at the time of Griffith's Valuation, was a single storey, thatched structure. No trace now remains of the house though other estate architecture is visible.
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.
Newborough	Occupied by Lynch esq in the 1770s, this house passed to the Crean family by marriage. Newborough became a Blake house in the early 19th century. At the time of Griffith's Valuation there were two houses valued at £3 in the townland of Bunagarraun, occupied by Patrick Higgins and Margaret Higgins, who held from Patrick Crean Lynch. The original house is not extant.
Ironpool	A Jenings home, described as a "good thatched 2 -storey dwelling house" in 1852, occupied by George Jenings. It was held in fee by William Ogilvie at the time of Griffith's Valuation when it was valued at £6. It is now a ruin.
Blindwell	In 1786 Wilson refers to Blindwell as the seat of Mr. Kirwan. It was held in fee by Martin S. Kirwan at the time of Griffith's Valuation, when it was valued at almost £18. A fireplace still marks the site of the house which was demolished in the early 20th century. After 1900 this property was owned by the Websters, Nolans and now by the Fair family. Part of Blindwell also belonged to the Agricultural Institute.
Rockwell	The main residence of the Lynch family throughout the 19th century, valued at £13 in the mid 1850s.
Cloonmore	At the time of Griffith's Valuation the house was valued at £3 and was held in fee by Charles Grant.It is labelled Cloonmore on both the 1st and 25-inch edition Ordnance Survey maps but is no longer extant.
