House name Description
Derrycarne At the time of Griffith's Valuation Derrycarne was the property of William Ormsby Gore and was valued at £30. Lewis records it as the seat of the Nisbett family in 1837. In 1906 it was in the possession of Lord Harlech (Ormsby Gore) and was valued at £33. The Ormsby Gore estate was eventually sold in 1924 and Derrycarne and about 80 acres were acquired by a Col. Kirkwood, a relative of the Kirkwood family of Woodbrook, county Roscommon. It changed hands again several times before being acquired by the Land Commission in 1952. The house was demolished shortly afterwards.
Aughry House Aughry House built after the publication of the First Edition Ordnance Survey map. At the time of Griffith's Valuation it was owned and occupied by Charles T. Ward and was valued at £13. Aughry Castle (in ruins) is visible nearby on the 1st edition map. This may be the property referred to in 1786 by Wilson as the seat of Mr. Nesbit. Elaborate modern entrance gates identify Aughry House which appears to be close to the site of the original.
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.
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] Photo of Tully Lodge
Drumod More At the time of Griffith's Valuation, Catherine Warren was leasing a house valued at £9 to Francis Murphy at Drumod More, barony of Mohill. Extensive redevelopment and road building have taken place in this area though there are still buildings at the site.
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.
