House name	Description
Knockadoo	At the time of Griffith's Valuation the house at Knockadoo was occupied by Meredith Thompson and was valued at £11. McTernan indicates that it had previously been owned by the Savage family and sold to the Thompsons in the 1840s, leaseholders since the eighteenth century. In the 1880s, Knockadoo was sold to the Heather family who ran a horse-breeding business there until the 1930s when the property was acquired by the Land Commission. The house was subsequently damaged by fire but has been extensively restored in recent times.
Greenfield Cottage/Greenville	At the time of Griffith's Valuation, Henry Burrowes was leasing a property valued at almost £8 from the O'Hara estate at Coolaney. This seems to be the property marked on the 1st edition OS Map as Greenfield Cottage. It appears on the 25-inch Ordnance survey of the 1890s as Greenville. The original house is no longer extant.
Thornhill (Ballinacarrow)	At the time of Griffith's Valuation, Charles Gilbert was leasing a house and bleach mill at Ballinacarrow North, from the Hall Dare (earlier and later the Perceval) Estate. The combined valuation of the buildings was over £21. McTernan states that this is Thornhill House and mills. The mills had ceased to operate in the early twentieth century but the house is still extant.
