House name Description
French Park At the time of Griffith's Valuation Frenchpark was owned by Rev. John Ffrench, Lord de Freyne and was valued at £60. In the 1749 Census of Elphin it was the residence of Arthur and Lady French. In 1786 Wilson described it as "a most beautiful seat with extensive and noble demesnes". It was demolished in the twentieth century. Members of the French family were buried in the graveyard surrounding the ruins of Frenchpark Priory. Photo of French Park
Barnaboy Francis O'Grady was leasing a property at Barnaboy, barony of Frenchpark, valued at £4 15s together with 179 acres of land from William Longfield's estate at the time of Griffith's Valuation. Farm buildings exist at the site now.
Ratra House & Stables Lord de Freyne held a house valued at £4 10s at Ratra, barony of Frenchpark, at the time of Griffith's Valuation. In 1814 Ratra was the residence of Henry Irwin.
