Castle View | A house located just east of the present day reservoir south of Macroom. Lewis records P. Ronayne as resident at Castleview in 1837. Patrick Ronane was the occupier of a house valued at £11 in this townland in the mid 19th century. The sale rental of April 1861 describes the house as "commodious" with a walled in garden. It was held on a lease from Michael Cox to John Ronayne as trustee for Thomas Browne dated 1800. Buildings are still located at this site. | |
Dripsey Lodge | At the time of Griffith's Valuation this property was occupied by Alfred Greer, leasing from Sir William Magny. The house was valued at £26 while the adjacent paper mills had a valuation of £120. It is named as Dripsey House on the 25-inch Ordnance Survey map of the 1890s. The house is no longer extant. | |
St. Olan's | Rev. William Welland was leasing the property from William Crooke at the time of Griffith's Valuation when it was valued at over £20. It is labelled St. Olan's Rectory on the First Edition Ordnance Survey map and as St.Olan's on the 25-inch edition of the 1890s. In the early 1940s the Irish Tourist Association survey reported that it was occupied by Mr. Devlin, area engineer. The house is still extant and occupied. | |
Clontead More House | At the time of Griffith's Valuation, Herbert Gillman was leasing a property valued at £14 from Edward Murphy.
