The Gonne Bells were recorded as resident in Lewis and the Ordnance Survey Name Books. The house appears to have been known as Farmhill during the Vesey/Arbuthnot/Gonne Bell ownership and thereafter as Carradoyne House. It was occupied by Thomas Elwood in 1845 and by Lady Lynch Blosse at the time of Griffith’s Valuation. By the 1860s it was the home of the Sheffields.

His daughter and heiress married Dominick Browne of Castlemagarret and ownership of Claremount appears to have passed to the Castlemagarret Brownes. The Kirwans and Denis Browne of Westport lived in the house in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. It was bought by Murray McGregor Blacker from Lord Oranmore and Browne in 1858 for £4,250. Blacker owned the house until 1874. In 1877 the house and about 313 acres were sold to the local parish priest by Thomas D. Maguire for the purpose of establishing a Convent of Mercy.

The house, built in 1694, was destroyed by fire in August 1811 and a replacement built in the Tudor Gothic style. Robert Graham, in his journal of September 1836, refers to the fire and that "the present house is constructed out of the old offices, but is amazingly comfortable as far as it goes". Held in fee by Geoffrey Browne at the time of Griffith's Valuation, when it was valued at £25. The house functioned as a nursing home after it was sold by the Brownes in 1964. It is still extant but unoccupied. In 2015 it was offered for sale.

This later building is labelled Millbrook House on the 25-inch Ordnance Survey map of the 1890s. It is no longer extant.
Brookhill	Brookhill was situated on church land held by the Gonnes, who leased the house to the Kirwans in the late 1770s. Occupied by the Lambert family from the 1790s to the 1940s when it was sold to Gerald Maguire, a solicitor in Claremorris. Now the home of the Noone family.
