House name Description
Raheen Raheen is associated with both the Kilkelly and O'Hara families. In the 1770s it seems to have been a residence of the Taylor family, with whom the O'Haras intermarried. In the 1830s the OS Name Books record it as "a neat house, in form like a cottage two stories high." Raheen House was badly damaged by fire in the latter part of the twentieth century. The entrance gateway is still extant. Photo of Raheen
Coole Coole House was built in the late 18th century for Robert Gregory. It was demolished in 1941 but the gardens and some of the parkland are still extant and maintained by the Forestry and Wildlife Service. Part of the farm buildings now houses an interpretive centre and tea rooms. See www.coolepark.ie Photo of Coole
