Gortmaloon	James Breen was leasing a house valued at £8 15s along with 500 acres from the Landsdowne estate at the time of Griffith’s Valuation. The building is no longer extant.
Coomlumminy Court	The representatives of Reverend D. Mahony were occupying a house valued at almost £5, together with over 1400 acres at the time of Griffith’s Valuation. In 1906 this was the property of Mary Mahony and valued at £3. The building was labelled Coomlumminy Court on the 1st and subsequent edition Ordnance Suvey maps and is now a ruin.
Ballynakilly	Lady Anne Headley was leasing this property, valued at £6 5s,to Andrew Talbot at the time of Griffith's Valuation. Farm buildings still exist at the site.
Curra Mill	Lady Anne Headley was leasing a property valued at £16, including a mill, to Francis Turies, at the time of Griffith's Valuation. Though it appears on the 1st edition Ordnance survey map the mill is not shown on the 25-inch editon Ordnance Survey map of the 1890s and the West Kerry branch line of the Great Southern & Western Railway is very close to the site.
Inchareagh Lodge	Andrew Talbot was leasing this property, valued at £16 5s, from Lady Anne Headley, at the time of Griffith's Valuation. Bary states that the Eager family had resided here until the early nineteenth century. Later it became the residence of one of Lady Headley's employees. It now forms a complex of buildings, some of which are modern and some much older.
Lickeen	James O'Connell was leasing Lickeen House, valued at £11 15s, to Francis Newton at the time of Griffith's Valuation. Bary states that the second of two houses at this site was built by Francis Newton in the mid-nineteenth century but that the original Lickeen House is much older. Later the Eager family lived here. Lickeen House is still extant and occupied.
Caragh Lodge	Edward Denny was leasing this property to Oliver Stokes at the time of Griffith's Valuation, when it was valued at £7 15s. Bary states that the Stokes family were resident here for several generations. The original house was demolished in the early twentieth century and a new house built by Lady Gordon, a descendent of the Stokes, which was called Ard-na-Sidhe. It is now a hotel. See www.ardnasidhe.com. A Landed Estates Court sale notice dated 1873 indicates that Robert G. Ramsden had leased 70 acres from the Denny estate and built a property called Castle Carragh, originally run as a hotel, in this townland.
Buncar House	The representatives of Rev. Denis Mahony were leasing this property to John O'Dowd at the time of Griffith's Valuation, when it was valued at £9 15s. Bary states that the Mahonys may orginally have built the house as a hunting lodge, perhaps at the beginning of the nineteenth century. It was enlarged several times afterwards and had several different owners. It is still extant though in need of renovation.
Glenbeigh Towers	In 1906 the representatives of Rowland Winn were the owners of a house valued at £36 at Killnabrack, in the parish of Glanbehy. Bary identifies this as Glenbeigh Towers, built in the medieval castle style in the late 1860s. It is now a ruin.
