House name	Description
Jamestown House or Jamestown Lodge	At the time of Griffith's Valuation Hugh O'Beirne was occupying a house at Jamestown, barony of Leitrm, valued at £40. Jamestown House was held by the O'Beirne family until the twentieth century though in 1894 Slater refers to it as the seat of Gilbert King, junior. In 1906 it was also valued at £40. It is still extant and occupied.
Mount Campbell	Josias Rowley was leasing the property at Mount Campbell, valued at £35, to William A. Lawder at the time of Griffith's Valuation. Slater refers to it as the seat of William S. Lawder in 1894. In 1906 William Rowley owned the mansion at Mount Campbell valued at £40. The house is no longer extant.
Lismoyle	At the time of Griffith's Valuation Francis Waldron was the owner of a property valued at £12 at Lismoyle, barony of Leitrim. A house still exists at this site.
Drumcree Mill	Josias Rowley was leasing a mill and house valued at £13 in this townland to Alexander Acheson in the 1850s.
Headfort/Headford	At the time of the first Ordnance Survey the property at Headford was described as belonging to "S. White, non resident, property going into decay". In the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries it was a seat of the Jones family. Wilson, perhaps incorrectly, refers to it as the seat of Mr. Johnston, in 1786. The house was immortalised by Anthony Trollope in his novel ''The McDermotts of Ballycloran''. The ITA survey of the 1940s recorded it as in ruins and it remains as an ivy-covered ruin today. It was pointed out for this survey as "the ruins of that auld Ballycloran Castle"!
Kilmore House	Built by the Reverend Edward King, Bishop of Elphin circa 1630. Home of a branch of the Lawder family in the 18th century until the murder of James Lawder in 1779. The Auchmuty family resided at Kilmore in the 19th century. The demesne was named Aghaward on the first Ordnance Survey map. A large farm is still extant at the site.
Ballycummin	A house valued at £8 when occupied by Roderick J. Hanley, who held it from Laurence Murray, at the time of Griffith's Valuation. Described by Lewis in 1837 as the former seat of the Earl of Roscommon and at that time occupied by Lieutenant Rodrick J. Hanly.
Cloonteem	Described in 1837 by Lewis as "a handsome and newly erected lodge of the Marquess of Westmeath". The house was valued at £14 in the 1850s and was held by Lord Greville in fee. The buildings have disappeared by the time the 25-inch Ordnance Survey map was published in the 1890s.
Charlestown House	In 1786 Wilson refers to Charlestown as the "the fine seat of Mr. King, most delightfully situated on the Shannon". The first Ordnance Survey map marks both Charlestown House and Charlestown Old House closeby at M984 976. Valued at £46 at the time of Griffith's Valuation. In 1894 Charlestown was the residence of Sir Gilbert King. The house is no longer extant but extensive estate architecture survives.
Fortview	At the time of Griffith's Valuation occupied by Erasmus Lloyd who held it from William Lloyd. This house is labelled Fortview on the 25-inch edition map of the 1890s. A house is still extant at the site.
Dangan	Dangan Castle was one of the main residences of the O'Beirne clan but was badly decayed by the early 17th century. Dangan House was built nearby and was occupied by the O'Beirne family from the 17th to the 19th centuries. They held Dangan from the King family. Father Martin Coen writes that Dangan House in the parish of Kilmore was the birthplace of George J. P. Browne, Bishop of Galway in the 1830s. Patrick O'Beirne was the occupant in 1814 and 1837. It was the residence of Mathew Hanly at the time of Griffith's Valuation when the house was valued at £8. Farm buildings exist at the site.
Ashfort House	The home of John Lawder in 1814. Occupied by Hubert K. Waldron in 1837. At the time of Griffith's Valuation occupied by John Hamilton and held from Thomas Goff. Farm buildings exist at the site now. There was a second smaller house known as Ashfort Vale in the same demesne grounds. It is no longer extant.
Tully Lodge	Built circa 1820, occupied by J. W. Kelly in 1837 and by Christopher Lawder in the 1850s who held the property in fee. It was valued at £20. Occupied by Samuel Russell in 1906. Another house marked as Lakeview was in the demesne grounds at the time of the first Ordnance Survey. In 1837 W. McDonnell was residing in Lakeview [M987 921]
Flanker House	The Walsh estate, including Drumsna House, was advertised for sale in the Landed Estates' Court in 1861. The sale notice describes the dwelling house as "handsome and commodious" with a large walled garden. At the time of Griffith's Valuation Mary Anne Walsh was leasing the house, valued at £22 from Josias Rowley. The accompanying map indicates that it was called Flanker House. In the 1870s several members of the Keogh family, with an address at Flanker House, Drumsna, held property in county Roscommon.
Cloonfad	Home of the Browne family in the 18th and 19th centuries.
Lowfield	A Lawder home in the 18th and early 19th centuries. Occupied by John B. Hogg at the time of Griffith's Valuation who held it from Sir John Gilbert. The house was valued at £2. It is not visible on the 25-inch map of the 1890s.
Clogher	Built post 1838, home of William Parks at the time of Griffith's Valuation and valued at £7. Thomas H. Parke was born at Clogher in 1857. He became a surgeon in the British Army and was with Stanley in Africa. Clogher was purchased by the Collins family from the Parkes in 1910.
Belmont	At the time of Griffith's Valuation Mary Anne Walsh was leasing a property valued at £17 to Hugh Byrne at Drumsna, barony of Leitrim. In June 1883 Gerald F. Walsh offered for sale the property in Drumsna known as Belmont. Modern housing now occupies the site.
