House name	Description
Castle Fogarty	Lewis writes that Castle Fogarty was "the ancient seat of the O'Fogarty family from whom it descended to the present proprietor J. Lanigan". He describes it as a "square castellated mansion, with embattled towers at the angles". The seat of the Lenigan family in the 18th and 19th centuries [held from the Earls of Portarlington until the fee was purchased in the mid 19th century]. Noted by Slater as the seat of Captain Vivian Ryan-Lanigan in 1894. A ruin since it was burnt in 1922.
Mountalt	Occupied by Martin Ryan in 1814 and in 1837 and held from J. Lenigan. James Lenigan is recorded as the occupier at the time of Griffith's Valuation, holding the property in fee, when the farm house and offices were valued at £7.
Crossoge	Lewis refers to Prior Lodge as the residence and property of the Reverend Dr Prior. The house in Crossoge is named Prior Lodge on the first edition Ordnance Survey map. This house appears to have been replaced by another building, a short distance to the south, known as Crossoge House sometime in the mid 19th century. Occupied and held in fee with 92 acres by the Reverend John Prior at the time of Griffith's Valuation when the buildings were valued at £25.15 shillings. This house is still in use as a country residence. [This may be the house to which Wilson, writing in 1786, refers to as"Bachelor's Lodge", in this area, which was a seat of Mr. Roe].

This house was occupied by Mrs Margaret Cooke in the mid 19th century and held from the Earl of Portarlington, valued at £13.10 shillings. John W. Cooke was resident here in the 1870s. Fort William is still extant and occupied.

John Trant held the property in fee at the time of Griffith's Valuation when the buildings were valued at £79+. This house was still in the possession of the Trant family at the beginning of the 1940s but by the time of the Irish Tourist Association Survey had been bought by Ballduff Co Operative, Thurles, who had plans to turn it into a model farm. It is now the headquarters of Dovea Genetics, see http://www.dovea.ie/html/history_of_dovea.html.
Inch	An 18th century building which was the seat of the Ryan family. The Irish Tourist Association Survey records that the Ryans, a Catholic family, came from Munroe to Inch and that their lands were held for them by Aneas Burke of Kilkenny during Penal Times. Wilson, writing in 1786, refers to Inch as the seat of Mr. Ryan. The house was occupied by Daniel Ryan in 1814. Daniel died in 1831 and was succeeded by his brother, George Ryan,who was resident in 1837. The house was valued at £53 at the time of Griffith's Valuation and was held in fee by George Ryan. It was recorded by Slater as the seat of George E. Ryan in 1894. The Ryans continued to live at Inch House until 1985 when it was sold to John and Nora Egan. The building now functions as a county house and restaurant run by the Egan family, see http://www.inchhouse.ie/about-us/a-brief-history-of-inch-house/
Fishmoyne	A junior branch of the Carden family lived at Fishmoyne from the mid 18th century.

A Mrs Butler was resident in 1814 and R. Minchin Carden in 1837. Richard Carden held the property in fee in the early 1850s when it was valued at £56.17 shillings. This house remained the property of the Carden family until 1955. The Irish Tourish Association survey records the house as "idle and locked up" in the early 1940s. Fishmoyne is no longer extant.

John Ellis was occupying a house valued at £14 in Kilrush at the time of Griffith's Valuation. He held the property from John Trant who held 210 acres from James Byron. A house is still extant at this location.
