Annagh	This townland was in the possession of Thomas Tyrle (Tyrrell) at the time of Griffith's Valuation. No house there has a significant valuation. In 1786 Wilson had noted Annagh as the seat of Mr. Dillon.
Clonalis House	The present Clonalis House was built in the late 1870s replacing an earlier Georgian house, the ruins of which can be seen at Clonalis. Charles Owen O'Conor, the O'Conor Don, lived here at the time of Griffith's Valuation when the existing house was valued at £35. In 1814 Clonalis is recorded as the residence of John Balfe. The Census of Elphin records Margaret O'Conor as residing in Clonalis in 1749.

Much of the demesne associated with Harristown is now occupied by Castlerea Prison.

The Ordnance Survey Field Name books record that there were no houses that could be called farmhouses in this townland in 1837 so it is assumed that Coolagarry must have been constructed 1837-1855. There is still a house extant at this site.
Errit Lodge	Errit Lodge, valued at £12, was the residence of Fitzstephen French at the time of Griffith's Valuation. It is recorded as Lough Errit by Lewis in 1837 when the Ordnance Survey Name books describe it as " a well built house, two stories high and slated with detached offices". Slater refers to it as the seat of Hon. Charles French in 1894. In 1814 Errit is recorded as the residence of John Barlow. The Census of Elphin in 1749 also records it as a residence of W. Barlow. A modernised and derelict building now occupies the lakeshore site.

Lowberry	The Encumbered Estates' Sale notice of May 1856 indicates that the mansion at Lowberry had "formerly" stood in the demesne and recommends it as a "most desirable site for building". It is shown on the First Edition Ordnance Survey map but no buildings are recorded in the townland at the time of Griffith's Valuation.

The house is described in the Ordnance Survey Name books of 1837 as "a good house, two stories high and thatched". The first edition of the Ordnance Survey map indicates a mill and a building described as "site of old iron works" close to the site. A modern building is located at Derry now.
