House name	Description
Earlsfield	Earlsfield had earlier been a Dodwell property. At the time of Griffith's Valuation it was leased from the Gore-Booth estate by Capt. Richard Gethin and was valued at £20. Slater records it as the seat of Francis Gethin in 1894. It is still extant and has served as a convent for many years.
Newpark	At the time of Griffith's Valuation Newpark was being leased by Jemmet Duke from Robert Duke and was valued at £25. Lewis recorded it as the seat of Robert Duke in 1837. McTernan notes that it passed by sale to Richard Edward O'Hara of the Annaghmore family in 1913. The house is still extant and occupied by his descendents.
Cloonamahon	In 1854 when the estate was offered for sale by Thomas James Meredith the house was described as "a good slated dwelling-house..somewhat out of repair, but with a little outlay, it could be made very comfortable". In 1906 Dr. Henry Tweedy was the owner of buildings valued at £50 at the site. Following the departure of the Tweedy family the property was used as a sanitorium and later a retreat centre. McTernan notes that the original house was demolished in 1976 and replaced by modern buildings. Most of the site is now occupied by a Health Service facility.
Lisconny	Lisconny was a property which belonged to the Phibbs family in the eighteenth century. McTernan notes that it had been purchased by them from the Mortimer family in the 1770s. It passed to the Toler family, earls of Norbury, through marriage. At the time of Griffith's Valuation, it was occupied by Bernard Owen Cogan, leasing from Lady Norbury's estate. It was then valued at £20. Lewis also records it as being occupied by the Cogan family in 1837. Johnston asserts that the Cogans acted as agents for Lady Norbury's estate in Ireland. The house was demolished early in the twentieth century. Very few traces remain except some walls of the stable yard and a building which had been an annex to the big house.
Coopershill	Coopershill House was completed in 1774. McParlan described its situation as delightful in 1802. Lewis records it as the seat of Arthur Cooper in 1837. At the time of Griffith's Valuation it was occupied by Charles William Cooper and valued at £52. Charles William Cooper later succeeded his uncle as owner of the O'Hara of Annaghmore estate and henceforth Coopershill bacame an O'Hara property. He is recorded as the owner in 1894. The house is still extant and run as a guesthouse by the O'Hara family.
Spotfield	Spotfield appears to have been the property of the Phibbs family in the 19th century but in the 18th century may have been occupied by the White family who had intermarried with the Phibbs. At the time of Griffith's Valuation, it was leased by John Phibbs to Eccles Phibbs. The house was then valued at almost £4. McTernan notes that the house was demolished in the latter part of the twentieth century.
Heathfield (Sligo)	The house at this site was built c.1890 presumably replacing an earlier house listed in Griffith's Valuation, when it was being leased by William Phibbs from the Cooper of Markree estate. At that time it was valued at £6. In 1906 it was owned by Thomas Randle Phibbs and was valued at £22. This later house survives and has been offered for sale in recent years. Ruins of gatelodge and gated entrance visible at G656219.
Tanzyfort	Tanzyfort House was built by the Cooper family in the mid-17th century and occupied by them until the completion of Coopershill House in 1774. Wilson, however, still refers to it as the seat of Arthur Cooper in 1786. Orser provides a detailed description of the layout of Tanzyfort House.
Mount Dodwell	Henry Crichton was the owner of a property valued at almost £7 at Ballinvoher, barony of Corran, in 1906. This may be the cottage which is still extant and was possibly a steward's house. At the time of Griffith's Valuation, it was being leased by Samuel Gilmore from the Creighton estate and was valued at £5. Lewis records Mount Dodwell as the residence of Charles Thompson, who was related to the Dodwell family. This was the original house, which had stood here since the eighteenth century. It ceased to be a residence in the mid-nineteenth century and was subsequently demolished.
Branchfield (Duke)	At the time of Griffith's Valuation Alexander Duke was leasing property valued at £8 with almost 300 acres, at Branchfield, barony of Corran, from Jemmet Duke. Lewis records Branchfield as the seat of Rev. William Duke in 1837. Wilson notes Branchfield as the seat of Mr. Duke in 1786, remarking that the ruins of Coolteem Castle are nearby. Branchfield House has been offered for sale in recent times.
Kilmorgan	Jemmet Duke held 220 acres at Kilmorgan, barony of Corran as well as a property valued at £5 at the time of Griffith's Valuation. Lewis had recorded Kilmorgan as the seat of Robert Weir. McTernan notes that Kilmorgan had belonged to the Trumble family but was sold by them in 1855. The site is now occupied by farm buildings.
Keenaghan Mill	At the time of Griffith's Valuation John and Henry Gorman were leasing an extensive milling complex at Keenaghan, barony of Corran from Robert Gore Booth, then valued at £83.
Derroon House	Derroon House is recorded on the 1st edition OS map. At the time of Griffith's Valuation, Capt. Richard Gethin was leasing a property at Derroon from the Gore-Booth estate valued at almost £3.
Roshin Lodge	Francis Foster was occupying Roshin Lodge at the time of Griffith’s Valuation. It was leased from the Conyngham estate and valued at £18. Foster's daughter, Mary Stewart Foster, married John Stouppe Charley of Belfast. She sold the property after his death. In 1876 it was offered for sale by Arthur Sandys Forster. Roshin Lodge was described as 'a spacious dwelling house, comprising 29 apartments' at that time. By 1901 it was the residence of William Smyth and his family. He had died by 1911 but his widow and children still occupied the property.
