House name	Description
West Cove	Edward J. Hartopp was leasing this property at Coad, valued at £14 15s, to Eugene O’Sullivan at the time of Griffith’s Valuation. Lewis mentions Castle Cove as the residence of Mr. O'Sullivan in 1837 but he may have meant this house. In 1814, Leet noted Cooe as the seat of John Sesggerson and Bary states that, prior to the O'Sullivan occupation, West Cove was the seat of the Seggerson family. It is still extant and sometimes let as holiday accommodation.
Scart	James F. Bland was leasing a house valued at £10 15s to William Jermyn at the time of Griffith’s Valuation. Bary states that Scart house was occupied for several generations of the Jermyn family before being sold in the 1890s. It is still extant and occupied.
Castle Cove	Thomas Jermyn was leasing a house valued at £10 10s to John Jermyn at the time of Griffith’s Valuation. Lewis describes Castle Cove as the seat of Mr. O'Sullivan in 1837 though he may have been referring to West Cove House. Leet, in 1814, mentions "Cooe Castle" as the seat of David Jermyn, Bary notes that Castle Cove was in the possession of the Jermyn family in the nineteenth century. They were agents for the Bland estate. It is no longer extant.
Liss Cottage	James F. Bland was leasing a house valued at £5 to David Jermyn at the time of Griffith’s Valuation. This appears to be Liss Cottage, which Bary states was a residence of the Jermyn family for a long time. There is still a house at this site though it may have been altered.
Waterville	Caleb Chute was leasing a property valued at £18 to James Butler at the time of Griffith's Valuation. Both Lewis, in 1837, and Leet in 1814, noted Waterville as the residence of James Butler .The Ordnance Survey Name Books described it as " two stories high and in good repair" in 1840. Bary indicates that the house was built by the Butler family in the late eighteenth century and they resided there until 1965. It is now a luxury guesthouse with a golf links nearby.
Kineigh	Thomas Stoughton was leasing this property, valued at £10 15s, to John Fitzgerald at the time of Griffith's Valuation. In 1840, the Ordnance Survey Field Name Books indicated that it was the residence of Rev. George Hickson but had been built by John Hayes at the end of the eighteenth century. It seems to have become a Fitzgerald property later on. In 1894 Slater referred to it as the seat of John Francis Fitzgerald. The Fitzgerald family continued to reside there until the 1930s. The house is still extant. Adjacent to Kineigh House a site labelled "Donnall O'Sulivan's House (site of)" appears on both the 1st and 25-inch edition Ordnance Survey maps.
Emlaghmore House	Thomas Smith was leasing this property from the Lansdowne estate at the time of Griffith's Valuation, when it was valued at £12 10s. Bary states that this house was associated with a branch of the O'Connell family, one of whom, Mary, married Daniel O'Connell. It later fell into ruin and nothing remains today.
Fermoyle Castle (Iveragh)	Charles Sugrue was in possession of this property at the time of Griffith's Valuation, when it was valued at £15. In 1906 it was owned by the representatives of Edward Sugrue. Bary states that there was originally an O'Sullivan castle at this site, on to which a house was built by John Sugrue in the 1820s. The Sugrue family later moved to Cork and the house was used for some years as the local Catholic presbytery. It is now a ruin.
Oak Lodge (Bear)	Leased by Robert Puxley from John L. Puxley at the time of Griffith's Valuation, when it was valued at £6. In 1906 it was the property of Henry L. Puxley and valued at almost £9. There is still an occupied house at the site.
