House name	Description
Oghil	Oghil house is recorded in the OS Name Books as being built in the 1740s, though McTernan states that the existing house dates from the late 1830s. At both the time of Griffith's Valuation and in 1906 it was the property of Robert W. Armstrong and was valued at £17. It later served as the parochial house but is now a family home again. See http://www.westsligo.com/culleens/historyoghillhse.htm for more details.
Kilglass	At the time of Griffith's Valuation a house at Kilglass, barony of Tireragh, valued at £35, was being leased by Richard Verschoyle from the Ecclesiastical Commissioners. In 1906 the house at Kilglass was owned by Henry McCarrick and was valued at £37. The house appears to have been known as Kilglass Lodge at the time of the 1st Ordnance Survey.
Kilmacurkan	In 1906 John L. Brinkley owned property valued at £20 at Kilmacurkan, barony of Tireragh. At the time of Griffith's Valuation the only building on his lands here was a herd's house valued at 5s. A substantial building is indicated on the 25-inch Ordnance Survey map of the 1890s but no trace of this remains now. Local sources indicate that this was a scutch/flax mill, of which the ruins still stand including the traces of the flax ponds, various sheds, etc that are present on the 1890 map.
Cuffe House or Camcuil	Camcuill townland was part of Peter Niddrie's estate at the time of Griffith's Valuation. The house with highest value was that of Edward Larrinan, leasing a property valued at £3 from Peter Niddrie. McTernan states that the house had originally belonged to the Brownes and later the Jones family of Fortland. In 1874 the sale notice referring to the Niddrie estate mentions Camcuill as "a comfortable dwelling house with extensive offices, recently erected". In 1906 a house in this townland is recorded as the property of the representatives of Grace Niddrie.
