House name	Description
Ballymacadam House	Robert M. Leeson was leasing this property to John Roche at the time of Griffith's Valuation, when it was valued at £13. In the 1830s, the Ordnance Survey Field Name Books record Lady Franks as the owner of the townland and John Roche occupying the house. In 1786 Wilson refers to Ballymacadam as a seat of the Earl of Glandore. Bary states that the house had a number of owners since its construction in the eighteenth century. It is still extant and occupied.
Crag House or Rockville	Robert Leeson was occupying this property at the time of Griffith's Valuation when the lessor was William Miles. It was then valued at £18 15s. On the 1st edition Ordnance Survey map the house is labelled as Rockville. Bary quotes O'Donovan who claimed the owner in the 1830s was John Marshell Myles. The house is still extant and the well-known Crag Cave complex is located in the demesne. See www.cragcave.com
Castleview House	At the time of Griffith's Valuation, Robert Leeson was leasing this property to Edward Hartnett when it was valued at £11. On the 1st edition Ordnance Survey map it is labelled as Charter School but by the 1893 edition it is named as Castleview House. Bary indicates that the property was originally built in the mid-eighteenth century and operated as a Charter School until the 1820s. Papers relating to its operation as a charter school are included in Ms.17,973 [Quane Papers] in the National Library of Ireland. It was later enlarged by the Hartnett family who occupied it for much of the nineteenth century. It is still extant and occupied.
Tobermaing House	Robert Chambers was leasing a property which included a mill to James Chambers at the time of Griffith's Valuation, when it was valued at £26 15s. In the 1830s the Ordnance Survey Field Name Books record Lady Franks as the proprietor of this townland and William Bailey as resident in the house. Bary states that the mill was run by the Bailey family and that the property was later owned by the Roche family. In the 1990s it had been converted into a bar and restaurant.
Tullig House	Henry Herbert was leasing this property to William England Young at the time of Griffith's Valuation, when it was valued at £7. In the 1830s, the Ordnance Survey Name Books describe Tullig as "a large house, two stories high, with offices and a garden, the residence of Widow Chute". Earlier, in 1786, Wilson notes Tullig as the seat of Mr. Sandes. Bary states that the house was originally built by the Saunders family and that it later passed to the Brosnan family who have lived here for several generations. Bary also mentions that William E. Young was married to Agnes Sealy and lived at Ballinvariscal House in Novahal parish.
