House name	Description
Newmarket House	Smith refers to the "stately house of Boyle Aldworth" on the south east side of the town in 1750. Lewis refers to Mr Aldworth's lodge in Newmarket. Newmarket was the seat of the Aldworth family held by Richard O. Aldworth in fee and valued at £56 in the mid 19th century. Valued at the same amount in 1906 it was the home of Major Richard Aldworth. In 1943 the Irish Tourist Association Survey mentions that the family went to live in England during the Anglo-Irish war and that the house was occupied by Crown forces and later by the Free State Army. According to the survey it was bought by the Sisters of St. Joseph in 1927. Newmarket House is still extant and now known as the James O'Keeffe Memorial Centre.
Liscongill	Occupied by William Allen at the time of Griffith's Valuation and held from Richard O. Aldworth, valued at £20+. In 1943 the Irish Tourist Association Survey mentions that the house had been divided and was then occupied by the Angland and Moynihan families. It is no longer extant.
Spring Lodge	A sporting lodge on the Aldworth estate named Spring Lodge on the first Ordnance Survey map. Occupied by Bartholomew Verling in the mid 19th century, who held the house valued at £10+ from Jane Williamson with 83 acres. This house, later known as Oxclose, is now a farm residence.
