| Thornhill | Home of Charles Burke Jordan in the 19th century. At the time of Griffith's Valuation, he was leasing this property to James Jordan when it was valued at £5. The building labelled Thornhill on the 1st edition Ordnance Survey map is not the same as that on the later 25-inch edition published in the 1890s. The latter is no longer extant but some buildings remain at the original site. | |
| Ballinamore | This house was the home of the Ormsby family in the 18th and 19th centuries. It was held in fee by Anthony Ormsby at the time of Griffith's Valuation, when it was valued at £40. In 1786 Wilson refers to it as " the beautiful seat of Thomas Ormsby". In 1938 the Ormsbys sold Ballinamore to a Scottish order of nuns, the Order of St John, who used the house as a school. The building was donated to Western Care in the 1970s. It now functions as a nursing home. |
