House name	Description
Benada	The Jones had a house here in the eighteenth century as Wilson refers to Banada as the seat of Mr. Jones in 1786. It was held in fee by Rev. Daniel Jones at the time of Griffith's Valuation when it was valued at £17. In 1858 it was transferred to the Sisters of Charity who ran a girls' school and orphanage there. In the twentieth century it became a secondary school and continued in that role until 2004 when it was sold to a private developer.
Carns Lodge	In 1906 Lord Harlech's estate was the owner of buildings valued at £18 at Carns, parish of Kilmacteige. . McTernan notes the house as Carns Lodge, which he says was built in the late 1850s as a gamekeeper's house. It is still extant and occupied.
Drummartin	At the time of Griffith's Valuation, Drummartin House was being leased by Joseph McCarthy, MD, from Caleb Digby. It was valued at £12. In the 1870s it is recorded as the address of Mrs. Mullarkey. The sale notice of June 1885 indicates that it was a modern house erected at a cost of over £2000 and the main tenant was William Evans.
Carns (Kilmacteige)	At the time of Griffith's Valuation, Henry McCarrick was leasing a property valued at £14 in the village of Aclare (Carns townland), from the estate of William Evans. A shooting lodge is marked in this townland on the 25-inch Ordnance Survey map of the 1890s.
