House name	Description
Cottlestown	The Kirkwood estate was centred on Cottlestown House. The name seems to have sometimes been known as Castletown and this is how it appears on the First ed. OS sheet but documentary evidence would seem to suggest the estate was also known as Cottlestown. The Buildings of Ireland survey states that it is likely that the present house was added to an earlier, probably eighteenth century structure, which in turn replaced the fortified house on the site. On modern OS sheets the townland is known as Cottlestown. This property later became part of the Boyd estate.
Moyview	Moyview was part of the Wingfield estate but was let to other families at different times. At the time of Griffith's Valuation, it was being leased by Robert Warren and was valued at £12. There is still an occupied house at this site though McTernan notes that the original house was an eighteent-century single story thatched residence.
Scurmore	In 1786 Wilson writes that Scurmore House was the seat of Mr. Nisbett. Later, in the nineteenth century it became a seat of the Wingfields. In the 1830s it is described as undergoing repairs but the family were again occupying it by 1857. The house is recorded as the property of S.L. Lewis in 1906 when it was valued at £37. McTernan states that the house was demolished in the mid twentieth century. A later house now exists at the site but the original outbuildings are still intact.
Kinard Lodge	The Ordnance Survey Name Books record Kinnard Lodge as the property of the Paget family in 1837. It appears that it, like other houses in the area, was used as a summer bathing lodge. At the time of Griffith's Valuation, it was occupied by James Paget and was valued at £9. A second house in the townland was occupied by Henry Simpson, leasing from James Paget, and was valued at £6. Kinard Lodge is still extant and occupied.
Bartragh House	A Kirkwood family home in the 19th century. At the time of Griffith's Valuation, the property was leased by William Hopper from the Kirkwood estate when the buildings were valued at £16. A house is still extant at the site though in a dilapidated state.
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.
Seaville or Seaview House	At the time of Griffith's Valuation James Kerr was leasing a house valued at £12 at Carrownurlaur from the Wingfield estate. It is labelled Seaville House on the First Edition Ordnance Survey map but as Seaview House on the later 25-inch edition of hte 1890s. Portion of the original building remains.
Rinroe House	Rinroe was leased from the Wingfield estate by John Boyd at the time of Griffith's Valuation, when it was valued at £8. It later became a residence of the Ormsby family, relatives of the Ormsbys of Glen, and remained in that family until the 1960s. Earlier, in 1786, Wilson refers to it as "Bunro, the seat of Mr. Leech". The house is still extant.
