House name	Description
Streedagh	It is likely that Thomas Jones built a house at Streedagh c 1725. However, the present house dates from the early years of the nineteenth century. In 1906 it was the property of Richard W. Jones and was valued at £18. It is still extant and occupied.
Moneygold	At the time of Griffith's Valuation, Moneygold was leased by the Fawcett family from Viscount Palmerston's estate and was valued at £13. Lewis records it as the residence of the Soden family in 1837. McTernan notes that it was the seat of the family from the early eighteenth century when James Soden leased almost 1000 acres from the Temple estate. In 1906 it was the property of Major G.M. Eccles whose mother was Isabella Soden. The house was damaged in a storm in the early 1960s and subsequently demolished.
Mount Temple	Viscount Palmerston was leasing a property valued at £3 15s to Edward Parke in this townland at the time of Griffith's Valuation. It is estimated that the house now at Mount Temple was built c.1860. McTernan notes that the property was originally part of the Soden estate but was leased to the Parkes in the 1830s. They were to continue in occupation until the 1940s after which Mount Temple was acquired by the Land Commission. The house is still extant but derelict.
Classiebawn Castle	Classibawn was built for Lord Palmerstown in 1874. It afterwards passed to the Ashley family and is still in the possession of their descendents. In 1906 it was valued at £69.
Kinlough House (Oakfield House)	Kinlough House was originally known as Oakfield House and was the seat of the Johnston family from the early eighteenth century. It was remodelled in the 1820s by Robert Johnston and renamed Kinlough House. At the time of Griffith's Valuation, Kinlough House was occupied by William Johnston and was valued at £45. In 1906 James Johnston was the owner of the mansion house at Kinlough valued at £43 as well as 220 acres of untenanted demesne land. In 1943 the Irish Tourist Association Survey recorded that the house had been destroyed by fire some 20 years previously but that the gardens were still open to the public. Kinlough House is depicted in a ruined state in the Buildings of Ireland survey. Major new housing development is occuring on the site, adjacent to the walled garden.
Brookhill (Rossinver)	Brookhill is described as the residence of Capt. Johnston in 1835. At the time of Griffith's Valuation, it was occupied by Johnston Sharpe and valued at £10. In 1894 Slater notes that it was the seat of Capt. Forbes Johnston. It is the only Johnston residence still extant.
Tynte Lodge	Joseph Tynte was leasing lands from the White estate and later purchased 30 acres of land from Lord Massy (who had inherited that estate) for the building of Tynte Lodge. The Inventory of Architectual Heritage, however, contends that Tynte Lodge was built in the eighteenth century so perhaps Tynte was reconstructing an earlier building. At the time of Griffith's Valuation the property at Tullaghan was valued at £18 and was leased by Tynte to Hugh Montgomery. In 1906 Mervyn Tynte was the owner of the mansion house at Tullaghan valued at £51.
Ward House	At the time of Griffith's Valuation this property was held in fee by James Ellis when the house was valued at £10. It is labelled Ward House on both the 1st and 25-inch edition Ordnance Survey maps. The original house is no longer extant.
Mount Prospect	At the time of Griffith's Valuation, William Johnston was leasing a house valued at £14 to Glasgon Connolly at Aghaderrard West, barony of Rosclogher. This is the house known as Mount Prospect. Both the Ordnance Survey Field Name Books and Lewis record Mount Prospect as a seat of the Connolly family in 1837. In 1894 and 1906 it was the property of St. George Robert Johnston and was also valued at £14. The remains of various buildings still exist although a new house seems to have been constructed at the site near the lake shore.
Woodville	Described in 1835 as formerly having good offices and a well-managed garden but had a deserted looking appearance at that time. The Irish Tourist Association survey in 1943 recorded that the ruins of Woodville House were located in the townland of Tawly. The house was demolished around 1908 when the estate was divided.
Duncarbry Lodge	At the time of Griffith's Valuation John R. Dickson was the owner of two properties at Duncarbry, barony of Rossinver, one valued at £18 and the other at £10. Lewis records that Rev. Dickson was residing at Duncarbry Lodge in 1837.
Lareen	Lareen House was built in the 1820s by Luke White who died in 1854 and is buried in the old cemetery in Kinlough, the only member of the White family to be buried in the locality. Lareen then passed to the Massy family of county Limerick (Baron Massy of Duntrileague). In 1906 it, together with about 1200 acres of untenanted land in the area, was the property of Lord Massy. The house was valued at £23 at the time. Lareen was sold in the early 20th century to Maxwell Blacker Douglass who also bought fishing rights on both banks of the Drowes river and Bundrowes House. Lareen House burnt down in 1933. The Irish Tourist Association survey of 1943 mentions that it was in a ruined condition due to this fire.
Tullaghan House	At the time of Griffith's Valuation Tullaghan House was in the possession of Joseph P. Tynte who was leasing it from Col.White's estate. Subsequently it became a residence of the Dickson family. It is still extant.
Clogh	In 1906 Sir Jocelyn Gore Booth was the owner of buildings valued at £70 at Clogh, barony of Carbury. There are no building of similar valuation at the time of Griffith's Valuation.
Rindaly Cottage	In 1906 the Ashley estate owned a property at Creevymore, barony of Carbury, valued at almost £9. At the time of Griffith's Valuation this property had been in use as an agriculturalist's house on the Palmerston estate, and leased to John Lynch. McTernan notes that Lynch acted as resident agent and land steward for the estate. A second house, adjacent to the first, was leased, at the time of the Valuation, to Rev.Malachy Brennan and valued at over £8.
Rahelly	Francis Barber was leasing a house at Rahelly, barony of Carbury, from the Gore Booth estate at the time of Griffith's Valuation, when it was valued at £25. Rahelly later fell into ruin but has been restored and offered for sale in recent times.
Mount Edward Cottage	Both the Ordnance Survey Field Name Books and Griffith's Valuation record a property at Mount Edward as belonging to Capt. James Jones. It had a valuation of £2 in the 1850s. This would appear to be the property named as Mount Edward Cottage on the 1st edition OS map. McTernan states that it was occupied by the Hood family from the mid-nineteenth century until the 1980s. It is now in a dilapidated state.
Glenade House [Largydonnell]	The building at this site is labelled Largydonnell on the First Edition Ordnance Survey map. On the later 25-inch edition, Glenade House is noted. Loftus Tottenham was the owner of a property valued at £20 at Largydonnell, parish of Rossinver at the time of Griffith's Valuation. The sale in 1878 included this property. In 1894 Slater recorded it as the seat of George Loftus Tottenham. It is no longer extant.
Hollyfield House	At the time of Griffith's Valuation, Patrick Dwyer was leasing the townland of Edencullentagh or Hollyfield from the Gore Booth estate. This included Hollyfield House, then valued at £6. McTernan indicates that Dwyer was employed as a land steward by the estate. The house had a successionof owners thereafter and was in a derelict condition by the end of the twentieth century but has since been restored.
Moorfield Cottage	Jeremiah Rogers, a steward on the Gore-Booth estate, was occupying this property at the time of Griffith's Valuation, when it was valued at £5 10s. McTernan states that it remained in the Rogers family until the early decades of the twentieth century. It is still extant and occupied.
Urlar or Beckfield	Leased by William Hamilton,MD, from the Gore-Booth estate at the time of Griffith's Valuaiton when it was valued at over £10. McTernan notes that it was previously held by the Munns family and later in the nineteenth century by George Somerville. Labeled as Beckfield on the First Edition Ordnance Survey Map. It is still extant and undergoing restoration.
Fair View (Dane Ville)	The property at this site is labelled as Fair View on the 1st edition Ordnance Survey map of the late 1830s. On the 25-inch edition of the early 20th century it is labelled Dane Ville Lodge. At the time of Griffith’s Valuation, it was being leased by Mrs. Deane from the representatives of Colonel Dickson and Thomas Conolly’s estate when it was valued at £18. The site is now occupied by a modern house.
Rockfort Lodge	Charles Rochfort was occupying this property at the time of Griffith’s Valuation, leasing from the Dickson estate. It was then valued at £20. The house is still extant but does not appear to be in good repair.
Ferns Hill Glebe House	This property was held in fee by Reverend G. Tredennick at the time of Griffith’s Valuation, when it was valued at £24. It is labelled as both Glebe and Ferns Hill on all editions of the Ordnance Survey maps up to the 1940s. It is no longer extant.
Fair View, later Dane Ville	The property at this site is labelled as Fair View on the 1st edition Ordnance Survey map of the late 1830s.

At the time of Griffith’s Valuation, it was being leased by Mrs. Deane from the representatives of Colonel Dickson and Thomas Conolly’s estate when it was valued at £18. The site is now occupied by a modern house.
Mahgeracar	At the time of Griffith’s Valuation, in the 1850s, Thomas Ellis was leasing property in Magheracar townland from the Conolly estate. The building was valued at £15 15s. Ellis, in turn, was leasing a property to William Forde, valued at over £10.
Rose Lodge or Dingleicoush	Penelope St. George was leasing this property from the Conolly estate at the time of Griffith’s Valuation, when it was valued at £17. The house is no longer extant. On some earlier maps it is labelled as Rose Lodge but on the 25-inch map of the early 20th century it is labelled Dingleicoush.
Wardtown	In 1837 Lewis recorded "Wardton" as a residence of J. ffolliott. At the time of Griffiths Valuation it was leased from the ffolliott estate by Henry Likely and valued at £20. The National Inventory of Architectural Heriage suggests the house was built c.1739-1740 but has been out of use since 1916 and is now a ruin.
