House name	Description
Aghavrin House	This house was the home of the Crooke family for much of the 19th century, occupied in 1837 by Captain T. E. Crooke and at the time of Griffith's Valuation by William Crooke. The house was valued at £26 and held from John B. Gumbleton. The Irish Tourist Association Survey of the 1940s refers to it as the residence of Mrs. Scott, nee Crooke, by whose family the house was built. It also rather quaintly notes that “During the troubles of 1919-1921, the IRA often billeted themselves on the premises without any special invitation from the owner”. Aghavrin is still extant and occupied.
Coolalta	This house was the residence of the Reverend Pierce Green PP in 1837. It is named Coolalta Cottage on the first Ordnance Survey map and Coolalta on the later 25-inch edition of the 1890s. Occupied by Frederick Arden, valued at £13+ and held from Thomas Crooke at the time of Griffith's Valuation. A house is still extant at the site.
Oak Grove	Home of the Bowen family, occupied by Mrs Bowen in 1814, by J. Bowen in 1837 and by John Bowen in the early 1850s when it was valued at £28 and held in fee. The National Inventory of Architectural Heritage states that parts of the property were rebuilt c.1930 following the burning of the original house in June 1920. In the early 1940s the Irish Tourist Authority noted that it had been lived in by some years by a well-known actress, "Miss Lilly-Elsie" who was married to Major Ian Bullough. It is now known as Oakpark House.
Nettleville	The home of the Nettles family in the 19th century, valued at £35 in the 1850s. Occupied by the Reverend Basil Orpin in 1814. This house was still in Nettles occupation in 1906 but is now a ruin.
Kilberrihert	A house which was the residence of R.E. Crooke in 1837 but was unoccupied in the early 1850s. At that time it was valued at £20+ and Thomas E. Crooke was the lessor. A building is extant at the site.
Killinardrish House	Lewis describes this house as a "elegant Italian lodge lately built by R. J. O’Donoghue". It was valued at £38 and held from Sir Augustus Warren. In 1944 the Irish Tourist Association Survey noted that it was the residence of Mr. O'Donovan, manager of the creamery at Lissarda. Killinadrish is still extant. There was also a steward's house in this townland occupied by members of the Crooke family.
Rockgrove	A house valued at £18.10 shillings was held by John Good from John Carney at Rockgrove in the early 1850s. John Good is also recorded as resident in this house by Lewis in 1837.
Rockville	The family home of the Radley family in the 18th and early 19th century. Occupied by Cornelius Ahern and held from the representatives of Henry Longfield at the time of Griffith's Valuation. The buildings were valued at £9.15 shillings.
Hanover Hall	Occupied by J. Bowen in 1837 and by Robert Harnett at the time of Griffith's Valuation, when the house valued at £10 was held from Jonas Morris. A large farm exists at the site now.
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.
