House name	Description
Killorglin Glebe	Rev. Robert Denny was leasing Killorglin Glebe to Rev. William de Moelyns at the time of Griffith’s Valuation, when it was valued at £16. The site now appears to be occupied by agricultural buildings.
Summerhill (Mount Meredith)	In 1786 Wilson refers to Mount Meredith as a gentleman's seat close to Killarney. Bary writes that this is the property that later became known as Summerhill, held by The O’Donoghue. The Ordnance Survey Name Books note that this townland was leased by St. John Mason to Richard McGillycuddy and Madam O'Donoghue in the 1830s. The house is described as "formerly a handsome house but is now suffering to go to ruin". At the time of Griffith’s Valuation it was valued at £3 and leased to James Donovan. A substantial modern farm exists at the site now.
Cleeny	At the time of Griffith’s Valuation, Maurice Brennan was leasing a property at Cleeny, valued at almost £7, from The O’Donoghue estate. In 1906 it was owned by Lord Kenmare's estate and valued at £5 15s. Modern farm buildings are located at the site.
The Reeks or Baunclune	The McGillycuddy was in possession of the property at Whitefield at the time of Griffith’s Valuation when it was valued at £24 10s. Lewis and Leet also refer to Whitefield as a seat of The McGillycuddy in 1837 and 1814 respectively. Leet, however, also notes McGillycuddy Reeks as the address of McGillycuddy esq. In 1906 it was McGillycuddy property and valued at £24. Bary states that the house was originally known as The Reeks after the family title but that it was changed to Whitefield in the early 19th century by Richard McGillycuddy. However, on both the 1st and 25-edition Ordnance Survey maps it is labelled Baunclune. In more recent times it is known as The Reeks. This is how it is referred to by the Irish Tourist Association surveyor in the early 1940s who states that it was the the home of "Ross Kinloch, the MacGillycuddy of the Reeks and a member of Seanad Eireann". The house is still extant and occupied.
Coolgarriv House	James Donovan, MD, was leasing Coolgarriv House from The McGillycuddy’s estate at the time of Griffith’s Valuation, when it was valued at £12 10s.

Curragh House	Lady Headley’s estate was leasing a property valued at £6 5s to James Beazly at the time of Griffith’s Valuation. Bary states that the Beazlys acted as agents for the Headley estate and that Curragh House was built c.1810. The house underwent renovation in the later twentieth century.

It is mentioned as " a very fine building, densely shaded with trees" in the Ordnance Survey Name Books of the 1830s. Bary, quoting the Name Books, states that it was built in 1828 at a cost of £12,000 though the National Inventory of Architectural Heritage states that it was probably redesigned in the 1860s. It was the seat of Lord Headley in 1894. The house was burnt in 1922 but re-built to the same plan. The Irish Tourist Association survey noted in 1943 that it was then the property of Robin Hilliard and was being extensively renovated. It is now the Killarney International Youth Hostel.

It was afterwards the property of the O'Connor family but has been ruinous since the mid twentieth century.
Lord Brandon's Cottage	At the time of Griffith’s Valuation, Robert Chambers was leasing a property valued at almost £9 from Henry Herbert. Lewis mentions a house at this location as the seat of Rev. J. Hutchinson in 1837. This is now the site of a refreshment centre for tourists visiting the Gap of Dunloe.
Royal Victoria Hotel	Christopher Gallway was leasing this property to Thomas Finn at the time of Griffith’s Valuation, when it was valued at £65. This appears to be the Royal Victoria Hotel. In the early 1940s the Irish Tourist Association Survey noted that the Victoria Hotel "once the finest hotel in the district" had been converted into a farmhouse "about 130 years" and that there was an expectation that it was to be converted into a golf clubhouse. The site is now occupied by the Castlerosse Hotel, opened in 1960.
Ballymalis	Christopher Gallway was leasing a property from John Sealy, which included a mill, at Ballymalis at the time of Griffith’s valuation. It was then valued at £34. It is labelled "paper mill" on the 1st edition Ordnance Survey map and as "woollen mill" on the 25-inch edition of the 1890s. An extensive range of buildings still exists at the site. Elsewhere in this townland is Ballymalis Castle, a tower house in existence since the sixteenth century and latterly, associated with the Eager family.

The mills are no longer extant.
Lakeview	At the time of Griffith’s Valuation, James O’Connell was leasing the property from the Herbert estate when it was valued at £13. Lewis calls the house Lakeville in 1837. Leet also mentions a house called Lakeville in 1814 which he refers to as the residence of Francis Russell. Bary states that the existing house was built by James O’Connell in 1870 after he was made a Baronet but that there was an earlier house here also. The latter is mentioned as the residence of Mr. O'Connell in the Ordnance Survey Name Books of the 1830s. It was built in 1740 and located in the southern end of the townland. In 1894 Slater refers to Lakeview as the residence of Sir Maurice J. O'Connell. The house is still extant.
Ballydowny	Bary states that "Ballydowney is a very old house, probably built in the early 18th century. It was the house in which Robert Emmet, the patriot hanged in Dublin in 1803, was born. His mother was Elizabeth Mason". The Ordnance Survey Name Books record that the proprietor, St. John Mason, had leased the townland to Richard McGillycuddy in the 1830s. By the time of Griffith’s Valuation, the house was valued at £4 and being leased by Charles Daly from Daniel Cronin. In the early 1940s, the Irish Tourist Association Survey also refers to the possible association with Robert Emmet though it indicates that this story may refer to an earlier house, "replaced by the present one, built about a hundred years ago". In 1942 it was occupied by a Mr. Blanchfield and is still extant.
Belview House	Arthur Mahony was leasing a property valued at almost £4 from the Kenmare estate at the time of Griffith’s Valuation. In 1906 it was part of the Kenmare estate and valued at £5 5s. Bary states that this house, very close to the lake shore, was built by James Mahony, of the Dunloe Castle family, in the latter half of the 18th century. In the 1930s, it was still part of the Kenmare estate and Lord Castlerosse supervised the building of Killarney Golf Club here. The original house was demolished to make room for a new clubhouse.
Glena Cottage	At the time of Griffith’s Valuation, the Kenmare estate held properties described as cottages, valued at £16. Horgan indicates that these cottages were built on the estate to cater for tourist visitors. Lewis, in 1837, mentions the elegant cottage of Lady Kenmare, at a short distance from which a banqueting house had been erected by Lord Kenmare for the entertainment of visitors. In 1906 the property at Glena was valued at £16 15s. Bary states that Glena Cottage was burnt in 1922.
Killarney House	The 4th Earl of Kenmare had a new house built in the townland of Knockreer in the 1870s which became known as Killarney House. Bary states that this house was accidentally burnt down in 1913 and never rebuilt. The stable block was later converted into a dwelling and still survives. The last owners, the McShain family, left the property to the nation in the 1960s. An earlier house in this townland, built in 1828,, named in the Ordnance Survey Name Books as Prospect House, was occupied by Thomas Brown in the 1830s.
