House name	Description
Ardcloony	A late 19th century house incorporating the earlier Bourchier home. Major General John Bourchier married Mary, daughter of Thomas Macnamara of Ardcloony in the mid 18th century and inherited the property. By the time of Griffith's Valuation the house belonged to Francis C. Fitzgerald who held the property in fee. It was valued at £20. Edmond Fitzgerald of Ardcloony owned 214 acres in county Clare in the 1870s. John Connell Fitzgerald was resident in 1906. A house is still extant at the site.
Millbrook	A 19th century house occupied by the families that ran the mill. At the time of Griffith's Valuation the occupier was Peter Macmillan who held the property from Thomas Arthur. The buildings were valued at £40. A house is still extant in the area but on an adjacent site.
Glenomera	Glenomera was the seat of the Arthur family from the mid 17th century until the early 20th century. In 1786, Wilson refers to Ballyquin as "the fine seat of Mr. Arthur". It is labelled Ballyquin House on the 1st edtion Ordnance Survey map but as Glenomera on the later 25-inch edition. Lewis wrote in 1837 that Glenomera was "celebrated as a shooting station for grouse and pheasant". It was held in fee by Thomas Arthur at the time of Griffith's Valuation and valued at £35. The house is now demolished.
Ross	Home of the Pearse family in the 18th century, in 1786, Wilson refers to the house as the seat of Mr. Pearce. Ross was occupied by John Blake in 1814. In 1822 a new house was built at a cost of £2,500 and was the residence of T. Westropp in 1837. Thomas Westropp was the fifth son of Ralph Westropp of Clonmoney and Attyflin. At the time of Griffith's Valuation Ross was the residence of John Digan who held the property from Anne Westropp [widow of Thomas]. Buildings valued at £23 and some untenanted land at Ross were the property of Ambrose Hall in 1906. It is still extant.
Ardataggle House	A house known as Fisher's Lodge was located in this townland in 1842 but is not visible on the later 25-inch Ordnance Survey map. The townland of Ardataggle was sold by Thomas Fitzgibbon to Thomas Spaight in 1854. Mrs Spaight was living at Ardataggle House in the 1870s and in 1906 Colonel W. F. Fitzgerald owned the mansion house valued at £41 with 428 acres of untenanted land.
Worldsend	This house was occupied by Thomas F. Maunsell in 1814 and by James Walplate in the early 1850s. Walplate held the property, valued at £10 and 140 acres from Sir Richard De Burgho. It is still extant and occupied.
Fairymount	In 1786 Wilson writes that Fairy-Hall was the seat of Hon. Rev. Mr. Murray. It was the residence of Robert Going in 1814 and of Henry O. Bridgeman in 1837 and at the time of Griffith's Valuation. The house was located in the townland of Montpelier on the De Burgho estate and was valued at £16. It was surrounded by a 35 acre demesne. This house is called Fairymount on the first Ordnance Survey map and in Griffith's Valuation. Fairyhall was the name of the townland just to the north of Montpelier. Farm buildings are still extant at the site.
Parteen Villa	Robert Atkins Twiss, second son of Robert Twiss of Cordell House, county Kerry, was living at Parteen Villa in 1837. In 1840 the Ordnance Survey Name Books refer to Parteen Villa as the residence of Thomas Mansell Bradshaw, "a neat house in the cottage [stile]". The house was occupied by the representative of Robert Twiss at the time of Griffith's Valuation, value at £29+ and held from Mrs Margaret Ormsby. Parteen is probably the house at Birdhill occupied by Robert G.E. Twiss in 1906 and valued at £30. A building is still located at this site.
Birdhill (Kyle)	Christopher Kayes held a house and offices valued at £27.18 shillings with 231 acres from Mrs Margaret Ormsby in the townland of Birdhill at the time of Griffith's Valuation. These would appear to be located south west of Birdhill House and just east of Kyle burial ground.
