House name	Description
Fort Fergus	A home of the Ross Lewin family in the 18th and early 19th centuries. In 1786 Wilson refers to it as the seat of J. RossLewin. Occupied by Mr Evans in 1814 and by Daniel O'Grady in 1837 and held by Major William Ball in fee in the 1850s, when the buildings were valued at over £32. Bence Jones writes that Major Ball purchased Fortfergus in 1855 in the Encumbered Estates' Court. Weir writes that the house was burnt down in the 1920s. The remaining staff quarters have been turned into a residence and the farm buildings are still in use.
Cragbrien	An 18th century house of the Stacpooles which Wilson notes as "the beautiful seat of Mr. Stacpole" in 1786. It passed to the Stacpoole Mahons in the early 20th century and is still occupied. Matthew Kelly of Cragbrien owned 562 acres in county Clare in the 1870s.
Paradise	This was originally a 17th century house situated almost on the shore of the Shannon. In 1786 Wilson refers to it as "Paradise, the delightful seat of Mr. Henn, finely situated on the side of a high hill". It was altered in the 19th century. Many members of the Henn family were involved in the legal profession and lived in Dublin so the family did not inhabit the house much until the second half of the 19th century. In 1814 John Scott was residing in the house and Thomas Arthur in 1837. In the mid 1850s the house was unoccupied and Augustus Arthur was the immediate lessor. It was valued at over £17. The Henns began to reside soon afterwards. IN 1894 Slater refers to Paradise as the seat of Judge Henn. The Irish Tourist Association Survey File of the 1940s refers to rumours of the Colonel's intention to sell Paradise. Destroyed by fire in 1970.
Cloonnakilla	A house occupied by John Ryan medical doctor and held from John Bindon Scott in the 1850s. John Ryan was still resident in the 1870s.
Cornfield	Occupied by Westropp Ross in 1814 this house was in the possession of Major William Ball by the time of Griffith's Valuation, when the buildings were valued at £48. Later occupied by members of the Dawson family. The house no longer exists but a gate lodge is still extant.
