| Streamstown | Streamstown House was an important seat of the Irwin family in the eighteenth century. McTernan writes that it was a centre of gaiety and music and enjoyed visits from the well known harper, Arthur O'Neill. In 1786 Wilson refers to it as the seat of "Mr. Irvine". From the early nineteenth century, however, the family tended to reside elsewhere and Streamstown was usually occupied by a steward or herdsman, At the time of Griffith's Valuation, Henry Irwin was in possession of the property at Streamstown, which consisted of a herd's house and a gatehouse. It was valued at almost £2. In 1894 Slater still refers to it as a residence of Burton Irwin. Only one gable and a chimney of the house remain. | |
| Corsallagh | At the time of Griffith's Valuation Charles O'Connor was leasing a property valued at £8 together with over 250 acres at Corsallagh, barony of Leyny from John N. Farrell. Lewis records it as the seat of Dominick O'Connor in 1837. This house is no longer extant. | |
| Doomore | At the time of Griffith's Valuation the house at Doomore, barony of Leyny, valued at £5, together with over 200 acres was leased by Walter Henry from John F. Knox. In 1837 Lewis lists Doomore as the residence of Hugh Gray. McTernan notes that it was held by the Gray family from the mid-eighteenth to almost the mid-nineteenth century. | |
| Branchfield House (Leyny) | The residence of the McKim family for many generations, Branchfield was enlarged and extended in the later nineteenth century. At the time of Griffith's Valuation it was held from Catherine Gore by Patrick McKim and valued at £5. McTernan states that the lands were sold to the Congested Districts Board in 1910, though the family retained the house. It is currently undergoing renovation. |
