House name	Description
Littlefield	Littlefield, Killenaule, was the residence of Flor Carrol in 1814 and of E. Cooke "who occasionly resides here" in 1837. Earlier, in 1786, Wilson had referred to it as the seat of Mr. Cooke. Edward Cooke is recorded as the occupier at the time of Griffith's Valuation. He held the property in fee and the buildings were valued at £12. This house is now a ruin.
Grangehill	Robert Mason held a house and office valued at £15.10 shillings at Grangehill from William P. Barker in the mid 19th century. Mason was Barker's agent. He also held offices and 101 acres in the neighbouring townland of Knockatooreen.
Kilcooly Abbey	In 1786 Wilson refers to Kilcooley as the residence of Sir William Barker. This was the seat of the Barker and later Ponsonby Barker family in the 18th and 19th centuries. It remained in the possession of the family now known as Ponsonby until the early 21st century. The present house dates from the late 18th century, the family having previously lived in the old abbey. The house was partially destroyed by a fire in 1839 and rebuilt. In the mid 19th century the house was valued at £67.10 shillings.
