Ennistimon House In 1786 Wilson refers to this house at "Innistymond" as the seat of Edward O'Brien. Lewis writes in 1837 that Ennistymon Castle was originally a seat of the O'Brien family, descendants of the Earls of Thomond, but was then the residence of Andrew Finucane. By the time of Griffith's Valuation it had passed into Macnamara possession. The O'Brien, Finucane and Macnamara families had all intermarried. The house was valued at £28 in the mid 19th century and held by Captain Francis Macnamara in fee. It remained in Macnamara ownership until the mid 20th century and has been a hotel for many years. The hotel was the property of Mr Brendan O'Regan in the 1940s. Photo of Ennistimon House

Moy Lodge Also known as Carrowgar House, this early 19th century house was built by Sir Augustine Fitzgerald. Possibly the house named 'Moy' occupied by John Finucane in 1814.

Weir writes that it was purchased by George Studdert, sixth son of Charles Fitzgerald Studdert of Newmarket House in the mid 19th century. It was still in the possession of Sir Edward Fitzgerald at the time of Griffith's Valuation. In 1894 Slater refers to it as the seat of Major George Studdert but Lady C.E.
