House name	Description
Skreeny	Skreeny seems to have been built during the 1690s. It is recorded as a seat of the Cullen family by both Taylor and Skinner and Wilson in the 1780s. During the Famine period it was used as a temporary fever hospital. The townland was in the possession of the Earl of Leitrim by the time of Griffith's Valuation where the only buildings recorded area a gate house and offices, valued at £1 10s. Skreeny House is labelled as "in ruins" on the 25-inch Ordnance Survey map of the 1890s. The Irish Tourist Association survey of the 1940s recorded that it was "the ruins of one of the principal gentry seats in the area".
Kinlough House (Oakfield House)	Kinlough House was originally known as Oakfield House and was the seat of the Johnston family from the early eighteenth century. It was remodelled in the 1820s by Robert Johnston and renamed Kinlough House. At the time of Griffith's Valuation, Kinlough House was occupied by William Johnston and was valued at £45. In 1906 James Johnston was the owner of the mansion house at Kinlough valued at £43 as well as 220 acres of untenanted demesne land. In 1943 the Irish Tourist Association Survey recorded that the house had been destroyed by fire some 20 years previously but that the gardens were still open to the public. Kinlough House is depicted in a ruined state in the Buildings of Ireland survey. Major new housing development is occuring on the site, adjacent to the walled garden.
Brookhill (Rossinver)	Brookhill is described as the residence of Capt. Johnston in 1835. At the time of Griffith's Valuation, it was occupied by Johnston Sharpe and valued at £10. In 1894 Slater notes that it was the seat of Capt. Forbes Johnston. It is the only Johnston residence still extant.
Mount Prospect	At the time of Griffith's Valuation, William Johnston was leasing a house valued at £14 to Glasgon Connolly at Aghaderrard West, barony of Rosclogher. This is the house known as Mount Prospect. Both the Ordnance Survey Field Name Books and Lewis record Mount Prospect as a seat of the Connolly family in 1837. In 1894 and 1906 it was the property of St. George Robert Johnston and was also valued at £14. The remains of various buildings still exist although a new house seems to have been constructed at the site near the lake shore.
Rockwood	At the time of Griffith's Valuation Hester Cullen was leasing a house valued at £10 at Deerpark, barony of Rosclogher to Thomas Davis, MD. A house still exists on the site of the original Rockwood House.
Lareen	Lareen House was built in the 1820s by Luke White who died in 1854 and is buried in the old cemetery in Kinlough, the only member of the White family to be buried in the locality. Lareen then passed to the Massy family of county Limerick (Baron Massy of Duntrileague). In 1906 it, together with about 1200 acres of untenanted land in the area, was the property of Lord Massy. The house was valued at £23 at the time. Lareen was sold in the early 20th century to Maxwell Blacker Douglass who also bought fishing rights on both banks of the Drowes river and Bundrowes House. Lareen House burnt down in 1933. The Irish Tourist Association survey of 1943 mentions that it was in a ruined condition due to this fire.
Clogh	In 1906 Sir Jocelyn Gore Booth was the owner of buildings valued at £70 at Clogh, barony of Carbury. There are no building of similar valuation at the time of Griffith's Valuation.

Loftus Tottenham was the owner of a property valued at £20 at Largydonnell, parish of Rossinver at the time of Griffith's Valuation. The sale in 1878 included this property. In 1894 Slater recorded it as the seat of George Loftus Tottenham. It is no longer extant.
