Castletown House The original house is now demolished and a 20th century house stands on the site close to an old Macnamara castle. The house was occupied by Francis Macnamara in 1814 and by Robert Malcolm in the mid 19th century who held it from Colonel George Wyndham. It was valued at £10.
Moyriesk Lewis writes that the finely wooded property of Lord Fitzgerald and Vesey was bought by his father from the Macnamaras. Occupied by George Sampson at the time of Griffith's Valuation, when it was valued at £35. Moyriesk was accidently burnt in 1875 though Slater still notes it as a property owned by them in 1894.

At the time of Griffith's Valuation the house was unoccupied and William S. Vesey Fitzgerald was the immediate lessor. Rebuilt in the latter half of the 19th century by Joseph Hall and his wife Ellen Bindon. The house was bought by the Tuckeys following the death of Joseph Hall in 1907, the land was divided in the 1920s and the house went to ruin. Photo of Clooney House
Corbally The Spaights were resident at Corbally from the latter part of the 18th century. Poole Gabbett was resident here in the first decade of the 19th century. Griffith's Valuation show that the Spaights held Corbally from the Mahon family "of Corbally". The house appears to have reverted back to the Mahons in the later part of the 19th century. Slater notes it as the residence of George T.M Stacpoole in 1894.
Toonagh A home of a branch of the Miller family, probably descended from Henry Miller, uncle to Sir John Riggs Miller. By the mid 19th century Toonagh was unoccupied and the surrounding land was in the possession of John Blood Smyth who held it from William C. Judd. The house is still a residence.

In 1906 Quinville was in the possession of James Butler Ievers. The property was bought by the McCausland family of Drenagh, county Derry in the 20th century. In the late 1990s the house was undergoing a major restoration by the owners, the Houlihan family. in 2012 it was offered for sale. Photo of Quinville House
