House name	Description
Lissadell or Lissadill	The Gore Booth family built the first Lissadell House between 1750-1760, in front of the current house. The current house was built in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth century and continued to be the home of the Gore Booth family until the 1990s. In 1906 the house and buildings were valued at £347. The house has been open to the public for many years. It is now owned by E. Walsh and C. Cassidy and is being restored.

Cummeen (also spelt Cummin)	The Ormsby family had a house at Cummeen, Coolera in the eighteenth century. Wilson noted it as the residence of John Ormsby in 1786, when he describes it as "a magniificent and beautiful seat". At the time of Griffith's Valuation the representatives of Charles Ormsby were leasing the house and land at Cumeen to William Phibbs who in turn leased the house to Alexander Wylie. It was valued at £13. Some building remains and a possible folly are still visible at the site.

John McHutcheon was leasing one property valued at £18 while Amy Eliza Walker was leasing the second, valued at £28. In 1906 John F. Walker was the owner of a house at Rathcarrick, then valued at £63. Rathcarrick house is still extant and has recently been renovated.

Finned House	In 1906 Sir Jocelyn Gore Booth owned buildings valued at £8 at Finned, barony of Carbury. This is likely to be Finned House. This townland was the property of the Gore Booth estate at the time of Griffith's Valuation but the highest building valuation at that time was only £2.

Cregg House	Michael Jones, formerly of Lisgoole, county Fermanagh, is described as of Cregg House in 1854. His representatives still held the property in the 1870s. At the time of Griffith's Valuation, it was occupied by Capt. Alex Lumsden, son-in-law of Michael Jones, leasing from John Wynne, when it was valued at £25. Cregg House afterwards came into the possession of the Sisters of La Sagesse and is now a Special Needs facility.
Millbrook House(Drumcliff)	Edward Simpson was leasing a house, mill and associated buildings at Ballincar, barony of Carbury valued at £16 from the Wynne estate at the time of Griffith's Valuation. He offered the property for sale in the Landed Estate's Court in April 1873. The sale notice indicates that he held it on a Fee Farm Grant from Owen Wynne dated 1868. The original house is no longer extant.
Strandhill House	At the time of Griffith's Valuation George D. Meredith was leasing Strandhill House, valued at £9, from the estate of William Phibbs. McTernan states that the house remained in the Meredith family until the 1960s. It is now a roofless ruin.
