House name	Description
Dangan	The main residence of the Creagh family in the 18th and 19th centuries, held by Cornelius Creagh in fee at the time of Griffith's Valuation when the house was valued at over £25.. Sold in the 1920s, the Irish Tourist Association Survey file records the house as dilapidated and going to ruin in the 1940s. Weir writes that the house was demolished in 1948.
Cranagher	Originally a Bindon home this property passed to the Blood family through a marriage in the 1770s. In 1814 it was occupied by Mr James Kerin and in the mid 19th century by Giles Darcy who held it from William Blood. The house was valued at less than £2. There is a substanial house and demesne marked on the first Ordnance Survey map at Cranagher. Weir writes that a new house was started sometime in the 19th century a short distance from the original but was abandoned before completion. General Sir Bindon Blood sold Cranagher in 1905. Some farm building and modern houses exist at the site now.
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.
Tooreen	Originally a residence of Augustine Fitzgerald, occupied by John Kerin in 1814 and by W. O'Connell in 1837. James Hynes was in possession of the house in the mid 19th century. He held it from Maurice O'Connell and it was valued at £10. It is now a ruin.
Hazelwood	Occupied by Hugh Singleton in the mid 19th century and held from the representatives of Charles Mahon. The buildings were valued at £31. The house remained a Singleton residence until it was burnt in 1921.
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.
Brook Lodge/Dangan Ville	Occupied by William O'Connell in 1814 and by Pierce O'Brien who held it from Pierce Creagh in the mid 19th century, when the house was valued at over £13. By the 1870s this house, which is labelled Brooke Lodge on the 25-inch map of the 1890s, was the residence of Nicholas Henry Martin. A house is still extant at this site.
Quinville House	An 18th century house, Lewis writes that it was rebuilt in the early 19th century in the Elizabethean style, home of the Singleton family. 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.
Newgrove	Home of the Browne family in the 18th century and for the first half of the 19th century. In the 1850s this 18th century house, valued at £30 was in the possession of Eliza Browne, widow of Thomas Browne of Newgrove who died in 1847. Mrs Browne died in 1864 and the house and estate passed to the Brady family. Only some walls of the house remain.
