House name	Description
Ardbeg	At the time of Griffith’s Valuation, Robert Hickson was leasing this house, valued at £4 and 150 acres, to Richard Norris.
Hill Ville	At the time of Griffith’s Valuation, this house, valued at almost £12, was being leased from Lord Ventry’s estate by Thomas de Moleyns. Lewis refers to HillVille as the seat of John Hickson. Bary quotes O'Donovan who claims that this house was built as a lodge, in 1833, by James Hickson. In 1906 it was still part of Lord Ventry's estate and valued at £16. It is now Crutch's Country House Hotel.
Liscarney	At the time of Griffith's Valuation, Edward Hussey was leasing a property at Liscarney to the Dingle Poor Law Guardians as an auxilliary workhouse. Lewis notes Liscarney, in the parish of Ballyduff, as the seat of T.B. Hussey in 1837. However, this appears to be Liscarney House, leased by Hussey to Brigid Flaherty at the time of Griffith's Valuation, and valued at £1. It is not shown on the 25-inch Ordnance Survey map of the 1890s.
Brandon Lodge	The Ordnance Survey Field Name Books record Jane Hussey in possession of Brandon Lodge in the 1830s, describing it as a "thatched house about 40 by 20 feet on rising ground". At the time of Griffith's Valuation, Mrs. Hussey was leasing the property from Robert Hickson when it was valued at £3. The house is labelled Brandon Lodge on the 1st edition Ordnance Survey map but has disappeared by the time of the 25-inch edition in the 1890s.
