Bourke in 1894. In 1927 the Bourkes moved to county Meath and the house was sold to the Brices, who owned it until 1932. Some ruins of the original house remain.
Ballykinlettragh	At the time of Griffith's Valuation, Henry "Faucett" had much of this townland leased from the Binghams of Bingham's Castle, barony of Erris. A building labelled Ballykinletteragh House appears on the 1st edition Ordnance Survey map but has disappeared by the publication of the 25-inch edition in the 1890s.

Farmhill	Built in 1780 this house became the principal seat of the Gardiner family. It was left by Harriet Gardiner to Susan Pringle who died in 1910. Farmhill then became the parochial house until the 1950s when it was demolished. Only the large walled garden now remains.
Springhill	Springhill was occupied by Francis Goodwin in 1814 and by Thomas Goodwin in 1837. By the time of Griffith's Valuation Bartholomew Donohoe was leasing the townland from the Palmer estate but the buildings were only valued at 10s. Springhill is labelled as "in ruins on the 25-inch map of the 1890s and there is no trace of it now.
Palmerstown	In 1786 Wilson had noted Palmers Town as the seat of Mr. Palmer. The original Palmer house is marked "in ruins" on the first Ordnance Survey map of the late 1830s. The Irish Tourist Association File states that it was destroyed by fire when the French forces passed by in 1798. In the mid 19th century Henry A Knox, fifth son of Annesley G Knox of Rappa, leased the townland from Sir William Palmer. Knox lived in a house converted from part of the yard buildings of the original house before the mid 1850s. His descendants continue to live there today.

It was held in fee by Colonel Charles Knox at the time of Griffith's Valuation, when it was valued at £50. It is now a ruin.
