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.
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.
Churchtown	At the time of Griffith’s Valuation, Sir A. Blennerhassett was leasing Churchtown House to Robert Stokes. In 1837 Lewis refers to it as the seat of Sir A. Blennerhassett. Leet mentions it as the residence of R.A. Blennerhassett in 1814. The house was valued at £31. Churchtown House is still extant. Much of the demesne is now part of Beaufort Golf Course.

Gortnaskarry House	At the time of Griffith’s Valuation, Michael Horgan was leasing a property at Gortnaskarry valued at £5 from the representatives of Denis Mahony. Bary speculates that it may once have been an inn. It is still extant.
Gortnaskarry Cottage	Colonel Drummond was leasing a property valued at almost £5 to John Breen at the time of Griffith’s valuation. It is labelled Gortnaskarry Cottage on the 1st edition Ordnance Survey and remains by this name on subsequent editions.A house and farm are still extant at the site.

At the time of Griffith’s Valuation, Henry Blennerhassett was leasing a house at Annadale, parish of Killorglin, valued at £11 10s from a Mr. Thompson. Bary states that this is likely to be Peter Thompson whose wife was a Blennerhassett. The house is still extant though possibly not inhabited.
Mount Rivers (Killorglin)	This property at Annagarry is mentioned by Lewis in 1837 and Leet in 1814 as a residence of R. Blennerhassett, though the latter refers to the house as Mount Rivers. It is named on the 1st edition OS Map as Mount Rivers. At the time of Griffith’s Valuation it was being leased by Robert Blennerhassett but was in the Court of Chancery. It was then valued at £17 15s. Bary states that there is no trace of it now.
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.

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.

It was enlarged several times afterwards and had several different owners. It is still extant though in need of renovation.

In 1837 Lewis refers to Ardmoniel Cottage, the seat of R. Rae, but also to Altavilla, residence of J. Morrogh. Bary mentions that Altavilla was associated with the Morrogh family. It was later the residence of the Dodd family and is still extant.
