Ballynashee Lodge [Geevagh Lodge] | At the time of Griffith's Valuation Michael Keogh owned Ballynashee Lodge, valued at £22. In 1906 George Keogh was the owner of the mansion house at Ballynashee valued at £22. Lewis also records this house as a seat of the Keogh family in 1837. It is labelled Ballynashee Lodge on the 1st edition Ordnance Survey map but as Geevagh Lodge on the later 25-inch edition of the 1890s. A later building is still extant at the site. | |
Annagh Lodge | At the time of Griffith's Valuation, Thomas Whitney was leasing a house valued at £12 to Edward Frazer, at Aughnacloy, barony of Tirerrill. In 2006 Annagh Lodge was offered for sale by Raymond Potterton estate agents, in county Meath. The house details claim that Annagh Lodge was built by the Frazer family (from Scotland), around 1800. McTernan, however, notes that the house was reputedly built by a landlord named Hewitson. |

Alderford | At the time of Griffith's Valuation Alderford was leased by the representatives of William F. McDermottroe to Catherine Thompson and was valued at £25. In 1814 it was the seat of Thomas McDermottroe. Lewis also records it as the seat of the latter in 1837. Alderford is famous for its associations with Turlough O'Carolan, the Irish harper, as he died there in 1738 and is buried nearby in Kilronan. This house, however, was built in the early 19th century. It was the seat of Thomas Charles McDermottroe in 1894. It is still extant but in a dilapidated condition. |

Kilronan Castle/Castle Tennison | The house presently occupying this site was constructed in the later 19th replacing an earlier house which had been built c.1820. At the time of Griffith's Valuation the house had been valued at £70 and was occupied by Edward King Tenison. In 1814 it was the seat of Thomas Tennison and is recorded by Lewis as the seat of Col. Tenison. In 1894 Slater referred to it as a residence of the Earl of Kingston. The building is still extant and in 2006-7 was converted into a luxury hotel.

Drumdoe | At the time of Griffith's Valuation, John Wolfe Flanagan was leasing a house at Drumdoe from Viscount Lorton's estate, valued at £28. This house is described as "a good house, formerly the residence of Colonel Lilly" at the time of the first Ordnance Survey. A larger house was constructed some time after this and appears on the 25-inch map of the 1890s. This latter house is still extant. | |
Lyonstown | At the time of the first Ordnance Survey a large ruin, said to have been the residence of the Lyons family, was in the possession of the O'Donnell of Greyfield estate. | |
Andresna | Meredith Thompson was leasing a property valued at £6 at Andresna, barony of Tirerrill, to William Thompson at the time of Griffith's Valuation. | |
Castlefield House | At the time of Griffith's Valuation Meredith Thompson, senior, was occupying a house valued at over £5 at Anresna, barony of Tirerrill. This appears to be the house marked on the OS map as Castlefield House, on the shores of Lough Arrow. McTernan notes that it later came into the possession of the Acheson family who sold it in 1935. It is still extant but in 2009 was unoccupied. | |
