| Ballintava | In 1906 Samuel Barret owned the mansion house at Ballintava which was valued at almost £14. The house is extant and appeared to be in the process of renovation in the early 21st century. |

| Carrowntryla | Occupied by Henry esq in the 1770s and in 1786. It was the home of the Handcock family in the 19th century, sold to Captain Dick in 1897 and occupied by him in the early years of the 20th century. Bought by Major Gerald Stratford Handcock in 1928 and inherited by his niece, Mrs Voss, who sold the house to Hector McDonnell, a Galway building contractor. The house is no longer extant. |

| Woodfield | Home of a branch of the Kirwan family in the 18th and early 19th centuries. By the time of Griffith's Valuation, the townland was owned by the Hancock family but no house had a substantial valuation. A house still exists at the site. | |
| Carrowpadden | Carrowpadden House is marked on the Taylor and Skinner map of 1778. In 1786 Wilson refers to it as the seat of Mr. Higgins. 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. |
