House name	Description
Aghangran House	Joseph Dexter was leasing this property from the Blacker estate at the time of Griffith's Valuation, when it was valued at £4. Leet recorded it as the seat of Thomas O'Connor in 1814. In 1837 Lewis mentions the house as the residence of J. O'Connor. The Ordnance Survey Name Books mention that John O'Connor was leasing the property from Maxwell Blacker in the 1830s. Bary notes that the house was associated with the O'Connor family earlier in the nineteenth century. It was later burned and subsequently demolished.
Carrigafoyle Castle	Charles L. Sandes was leasing this property to Stephen Sandes at the time of Griffith's Valuation, when it was valued at £19 10s. It is described on the 1st edition Ordnance Survey Map as Carrigafoyle Castle but on the later 25" edition as Carrigafoyle House. In 1786 Wilson refers to it as "the ancient mansion of O'Connor Kerry, formerly a place of great strength and important.. but now serving as a store to transport goods from the adjacent places to Limerick".
Rushy Park or Rusheen Park	At the time of Griffith's Valuation, Rev. Samuel Leonard was leasing this property to Thomas O'Connor, when it was valued at £9 15s. Bary writes that this house was in the Leonard family in the early nineteenth century. It was demolished in the early twentieth century and a new house constructed at the site.
Rusheen House	In 1786 Wilson refers to Rusheen as the seat of Mr. Crosbie. The 1st edition Ordnance map of the townland shows both Rusheen House and the site of "Rusheen Old House". At the time of Griffith's Valuation Stephen Sandes was leasing this property from the Crosbie estate. It included a herd's house valued at £1 5s. Bary writes that there were several marriages between members of the Crosbie and Sandes families in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. The house is no longer extant.
