Cahercon/Cahiracon	A house situated on the bank of the Shannon, the seat of the Scott family until at least the 1850s. The sale rental of 1854 gives a detailed description of the house which included 16 bedrooms. By the mid 19th century James Kelly held the house in fee. The buildings were valued at over £53. The Honourable Charles William White, second surviving son of Baron Annally, was living at Cahiracon in the mid 1870s and it was a seat of that family in 1894. The Vandeleurs lived here for a short time at the beginning of the 20th century. Bought by the Maynooth Mission to China in 1920 and sold by them to the Salesian Sisters of St John Bosco in 1962. The house later became the centre of Cahercon Community College. Cahercon is now owned by Clareman Paddy Whelan of Limestone Quarries.
Clifton	Built by the Scotts of Cahiracon for the use of their agents circa 1830s, this house was in the possession of James Kelly by the time of Griffith's Valuation when the house was recorded as unoccupied. It became St Brigid's Convent for postulants of the Columban Sisters in the 1920s and was demolished in 1979.

Cloonkerry House	Cloonkerry was an 18th century house on the Vandeleur estate. The house was occupied by Richard Brew in 1814 and by members of the Lloyd family in 1837 and in the 1850s. Weir writes that the house is now demolished. According to local information this house was once a police barracks.

In 1786 Wilson refers to it as the seat of Mr. Studdert. It was part of the Wandesforde estate in county Clare. It was the home of Mrs Gore (nee Studdert) in the 1940s but according to the Irish Tourist Association surveyor it was not in good repair and "likely to go the way of all the other big houses of Clare". However it has survived into the 21st century with its roof on. In 1894 it was the residence of Captain George Studdert.

Burrane	The Hodges lived here for over a hundred years following a marriage in 1754 with a Monsell of Burrane though Wilson still refers to it as the seat of Mr. Monsell in 1786. It was held from the Reeves family of nearby Besborough who came to hold the head rent through an 18th century marriage with a Spaight of Burrane. Weir writes that the house was demolished in the early 20th century.

Joseph Studdert had occupied the house in 1837. He was a grandson of Maurice Studdert of Elm Hill, county Limerick. One of Joseph's sons married Mary Gore of Tyredagh Castle and the Gore Hickmans appear to have occupied the house in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. This house is now a ruin.
Oaklands	A one storey 18th century house on the Hickman estates occupied by William Henn in 1814 and by R. Hunt in 1837. The residence of the Bennett family from at least the mid 19th century and sold by the Misses Bennett in 1929.

Putland from the Knight of Glin. Caheragh House is still extant.

Wilson refers to it in 1786 as" Glyn House, the pleasant seat of Mr. Fitzgerald". In the early 1850s it was valued at £50. The castle is still in the possession of the family but in 2015 was offered for sale.
Westwood	Reverend P. Fitzgerald wrote in 1826 that Lancelot Kiggell "lately built a beautiful cottage adjoining a fine old wood near Glin". This house was occupied by Lieutenant Hyde Royal Navy in 1837 and by John F.E. Fitzgerald, heir to the Knight of Glin in the early 1850s. The house shown on the 25-inch map of the 1890s is much reduced in size and it is no longer extant.

By the time of Griffith's Valuation this is in possession of Peter Griffin, leasing from the Spring-Rice estate and with a valuation of £1 15s.
