House name Description
Ballynashee Lodge [Geevagh Lodge] At the time of Griffith's Valuation Michael Keogh owned Ballynashee Lodge, valued at £22. In 1906 George Keogh was the owner of the mansion house at Ballynashee valued at £22. Lewis also records this house as a seat of the Keogh family in 1837. It is labelled Ballynashee Lodge on the 1st edition Ordnance Survey map but as Geevagh Lodge on the later 25-inch edition of the 1890s. A later building is still extant at the site.
Annagh Lodge At the time of Griffith's Valuation, Thomas Whitney was leasing a house valued at £12 to Edward Frazer, at Aughnacloy, barony of Tirerrill. In 2006 Annagh Lodge was offered for sale by Raymond Potterton estate agents, in county Meath. The house details claim that Annagh Lodge was built by the Frazer family (from Scotland), around 1800. McTernan, however, notes that the house was reputedly built by a landlord named Hewitson. Photo of Annagh Lodge
Alderford At the time of Griffith's Valuation Alderford was leased by the representatives of William F. McDermottroe to Catherine Thompson and was valued at £25. In 1814 it was the seat of Thomas McDermottroe. Lewis also records it as the seat of the latter in 1837. Alderford is famous for its associations with Turlough O'Carolan, the Irish harper, as he died there in 1738 and is buried nearby in Kilronan. This house, however, was built in the early 19th century. It was the seat of Thomas Charles McDermottroe in 1894. It is still extant but in a dilapidated condition. Photo of Alderford
Kilronan Castle/Castle Tennison The house presently occupying this site was constructed in the later 19th replacing an earlier house which had been built c.1820. At the time of Griffith's Valuation the house had been valued at £70 and was occupied by Edward King Tenison. In 1814 it was the seat of Thomas Tennison and is recorded by Lewis as the seat of Col. Tenison. In 1894 Slater referred to it as a residence of the Earl of Kingston. The building is still extant and in 2006-7 was converted into a luxury hotel.

Glenboy There were two houses at Glenboy townland, one at least of which was part of the Clements estate but appears to have been leased for long periods to the Algeo family. John Marcus Clements, MP for Leitim, is described as "of Glenboy". He was nephew of Robert Clements, 1st Earl of Leitrim. A house at Glenboy was the residence of John Algeo in 1814. Glenboy is described as a seat of the Algeo family by Lewis in 1837 while Hollymount is the residence of the Armstrong family. At the time of Griffith's Valuation, Lewis Algeo was leasing house at Glenboy, valued at £25, to Simon Armstrong while he was also leasing a house from the Clements estate valued at £12. Houses are still extant at these locations.

Larkfield In 1786 Wilson refers to Larkfield as the seat of Mr. Donnell. Larkfield is described as a very plain house but nevertheless its construction is alleged to have caused financial embarrassment for the O'Donnell estate. It was valued at £15 at the time of Griffith's Valuation when it was occupied by John O'Donnell. After the purchase of the estate by the Land Commission in the 1930s the house was demolished and another house has been constructed on the site.
Belhavel Belhavel was the home of Hugh Lyons Montgomery, built during the Famine. The family took up residence there in 1850. Slater refres to it as the seat of Hugh Lyons Montgomery in 1894. The Irish Tourist Association survey in the 1940s records that "every stone was taken away to build houses throughout the district". An earlier castle also in Belhavel is reputed to have been built by the first Montgomery to settle in the area in the seventeenth century.

Tawnahoney At the time of Griffith's Valuation, Patrick Buchan, agent to the Creevlea Iron Works, was leasing buildings valued at £17 at Tawnahoney, barony of Dromahaire, from John Johnston. This property does not appear to be extant at the time of the 25-inch Ordnance Survey map in the 1890s. In 1786 Wilson had noted a property in the nearby townland of Gortermone as a seat of Mr. Johnston. It is not shown on the Ordnance Survey maps.

At the time of Griffith's Valuation, this townland was held by the Johnston estate but there is no property with a substantial valuation. The house is shown on the 1st edition Ordnance Survey map but a larger house appears to have been constructed later on an adjacent site as shown on the 25-inch map of the 1890s.
