House name	Description
Hunting Hill	Hunting Hill, a single storey house, in the townland of Ballyhimock is marked on the first Ordnance Survey map. Home of the Dwyer family in the first half of the 19th century it was occupied by Mr William Dwyer in 1814 and by Thomas Dwyer at the time of Griffith's Valuation. Located on the Annesley estate it was valued at £15. Various tenants lived at Hunting Hill in the latter half of the 19th century until it was leased to Edward Vaughan, whose descendants continue to live here throughout the 20th century. A house is still extant at the site.
Lisnagoorneen	Hajba writes that Thomas Franks, a nephew of Thomas Franks of Ballymagooly, occupied this house at the end of the 18th century. He married Margaret Maunsell of Ballybrood, county Limerick. They and their son were murdered by Whiteboys in 1823. A new house was built by George Foster Delaney in the 1830s and he was succeeded by his nephew George Johnson who occupied the house at the time of Griffith's Valuation. It was valued at £17 and held from the representatives of G.B. Lowe. The Johnson remained in possession until the early 20th century leasing the house to Major Mansergh among others. In 1942 the Irish Tourist Association survey noted that the Major had owned a famous horse called Lord Cunningham and that Lisnagoorneen house was then occupied by his nephew.
Glenanore/Glananore	Part of this house appears to date from the early 18th century. It belonged to the Verling family, whose interest eventually became vested in the Johnson family. The Reverend Richard Purcell was the tenant in the latter part of the 18th century and Wilson refers to it as his seat in 1786. It was occupied in 1814 by Garret Nagle and by the early 1830s the Hoares were resident. At the time of Griffith's Valuation Mrs Mary Anne Hoare was the occupier, holding the property from Noble Johnson. The buildings were valued at £32. Mrs Hoare was the widow of Reverend Thomas Hoare who was a brother of Sir Joseph Wallis Hoare, 3rd Baronet. In 1942 the Irish Tourist Association Survey asserted that the front part had been constructed in the early nineteenth century but that other parts were much older. It was then the residence of E.J. Hoare and it was still occupied by members of the Hoare family in the 1950s but is now demolished.

Through the Nagles Clogher had a connection with Edmund Burke, Lewis states that the estate "once belonged to the celebrated Edmund Burke".
Ballynamona	The Nagles originally inhabited the castle at Ballynamona but later built a house adjoining the castle. Garret Nagle was resident in 1814 and Lewis refers to Ballynamona as the ancient family residence "about to be rebuilt".
