House name Description
Old Dromore Smith refers to the "pleasant seat" of Sir Matthew Deane, "lately rebuilt, with an elegant front of hewn stone". A larger house built in the early 1780s was dismantled almost as soon as it was built by Sir Robert Deane, lst Baron Muskerry. Hajba writes that Jeremiah and Richard Gifford Campion occupied Dromore Old in the last decade of the 18th century. A house valued at £23 in the mid 19th century was the home of the Williamson family located on the Purcell estate. Occupied by U[sher] Williamson in 1814, Reverend Benjamin Williamson in 1837 and in the early 1850s. In 1894 Slater refers to it as the residence of Mrs. Williamson. In the latter half of the 20th century the home of the Hegartys. A house is still extant at Dromore.

It then became a Lombard property and passed from them to a relative, James Hunt. In the early 1850s it was occupied by James Laurence Cotter, held from James Hunt and valued at £14. This house is still occupied. Another house close by named Aldworth Lodge was also a Bolster home valued at £4+ at the time of Griffith's Valuation. A house is also extant at the latter 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.
Ballincollig In 1786, Wilson mentions a seat of Mr.Lloyd at Ballincollig, "near the ruins of the castle". By the time of Griffith's Valuation, this area appears to have been in the possession of Thomas Tobin and the house may have been that leased by Rev. David Horgan, when the buildings were valued at £14. A substantial farm still exists at this site.
Greenfield (Ballincollig) In 1786, Wilson refers to Greenfield, near Ballincollig, as the seat of Mr. Carleton with another house, the seat of Mr. Wetheral, opposite. Greenfield House is labelled on the 1st edition Ordnance Survey map but is not shown on the 25-inch edition of the 1890s. Greenfield Upper, across the road, is shown on both maps. At the time of Griffith's Valuation this townland was in the possession of Francis Carleton. Greenfield House was valued at £11 while the second house in the townland was valued at almost £10. Neither were occupied. A building is still extant at the Greenfield Upper site though extensive modern housing has been built in the surrounding area.
