Roughty Lodge	According to Bary, Roughty Lodge was owned by Capt. Massey Herbert in the 1820s. At the time of Griffith's Valuation, it was being leased by Mrs. Elizabeth Herbert, nee Orpen from John Dunscum and was valued at £9. It is still extant and in 2009 was offered for sale.
Shelburne Lodge	In 1786 Wilson refers to "the Earl of Shelburne's lodge at Kenmare". William Lawrenson was leasing Shelbourne Lodge at the time of Griffith's Valuation when it was valued at £10. The lessor is named as Garrett Riordan though Bary states that the house was part of the Lansdowne estate and may, in the eighteenth century, have been used by the estate agent.

Bary states that this property included an earlier castle, which was originally part of the McFineen McCarthy lands forfeited in the seventeenth century. It was granted by the Hollow Blade Company to the Conways but, later in the eighteenth century, the Orpens were occupying the house, subsequently replaced in the nineteenth century. Recorded, perhaps mistakenly, as the seat of R.H.M. Orpen and Sir. R.J.T Orpenm in 1894, in 1906 it was owned by Richard H.M. Orpen and valued at £40. The Scottish-baronial style house was burnt in 1921 but the ruins remain.
