| Dromadeesirt Cottage | Catherine Thompson was leasing a property valued at £5 from the Earl of Kenmare’s estate at the time of Griffith’s valuation. Bary states that this family may have been agents for Lord Kenmare and that local tradition suggests Mr. Thompson was killed by being gored by his bull. The property was occupied until the late twentieth century and farm buildings are still extant at the site. | |
| Killeen House | Denis Leary was leasing a house valued at £7 10s from the Earl of Kenmare’s estate at the time of Griffith’s Valuation. A farm is still extant at this site. | |
| Knocknamucklagh House | Charles Daly was leasing this property from the Kenmare estate at the time of Griffith’s Valuation, when it was valued at £5 10s. Bary indicates that this is a very old property, possibly built by the Fitzgeralds in the early 18th century when they were Kenmare’s tenants here. By the middle of the 19th century the Daly family were occupying the property which is still extant. | |
| Corbally House (Magunihy) | The Kenmare estate was the lessor of Corbally House at the time of Griffith's Valuation, when it was valued at £11 5s. Bary states that this farm was originally held by the O'Connor, probably of nearby Fieries Castle. Later a Fr. Dunne built Corbally House as a presbytery near the old Catholic Church. The property is still extant and occupied. | |
| Ballyhar House | In 1786 Wilson refers to Ballyhar, the residence of Mr. Eager. John Leahy was in possession of this property at the time of Griffith's Valuation when it was valued at £17. Bary states that this house was originally built by the Eager family but later sold to the Leahys. It is now a ruin. | |
| Rockfield | In 1837 Lewis noted that "Rockville" was the property of the representatives of the late John Drew. At the time of Griffith's Valuation, William Whorland was leasing a property valued at £5 10s from the Drew estate. The property was offered for sale by Alicia Wherland in the Landed Estates Court in July 1862 and again in July 1872. In 1906 Rockfield was owned by Bertram Morrogh Bernard and was valued at £11. Bary mentions it as a house associated with the Sealy family. Buildings are still extant at the site. |
