House name	Description
Kineigh	Thomas Stoughton was leasing this property, valued at £10 15s, to John Fitzgerald at the time of Griffith's Valuation. In 1840, the Ordnance Survey Field Name Books indicated that it was the residence of Rev. George Hickson but had been built by John Hayes at the end of the eighteenth century. It seems to have become a Fitzgerald property later on. In 1894 Slater referred to it as the seat of John Francis Fitzgerald. The Fitzgerald family continued to reside there until the 1930s. The house is still extant. Adjacent to Kineigh House a site labelled "Donnall O'Sulivan's House (site of)" appears on both the 1st and 25-inch edition Ordnance Survey maps.
Aghanboy	Mary Bourke was leasing this property valued at £5 from Col. Thomas Bourke at the time of Griffith's Valuation. It is not named on the 1st edition map though buildings are shown. Leet records Ahanebee as the seat of Captain Burke in 1814. Buildings are still extant at the site.
Emlaghmore House	Thomas Smith was leasing this property from the Lansdowne estate at the time of Griffith's Valuation, when it was valued at £12 10s. Bary states that this house was associated with a branch of the O'Connell family, one of whom, Mary, married Daniel O'Connell. It later fell into ruin and nothing remains today.
