Butlerstown Castle The Sherlock family had been in possession of Butlerstown Castle and estate since the 1560s. Wilson, writing in 1786, refers to Butlerstown as the seat of Thomas Sherlock. In the 1790s a disastrous fire saw much of the property destroyed and subsequently the family moved to county Kilkenny although they continued to hold estates in the area. At the time of Griffith's Valuation, it was the property of Robert Backas, three generations of whose family lived at Butlerstown, before departing at the end of the 1850s. Between then and the 1880s Butlerstown was occupied by Samuel Ferguson. In 1894 Slater refers to the property as the seat of Thomas Prendergast. Only the ruin of the castle survives but the Coachhouse is in use as Guest Accomodation.

Whitfield Court In 1850 William Christmas held Whitfield in fee when it was valued at £49. The National Inventory of Architectural Heritage indicates the house was built by him between 1820-1849, replacing an earlier house. Local sources indicate that this earlier house was in the townland of Whitfield and the name was transferred to the existing house when it was built in the adjacent townland of Dooneen. Leet records the earlier property as the seat of Thomas Christmas in 1814. Smith, writing in 1774, mentions the house as "an elegent seat belonging to Thomas Christmas, formerly a Dobbyn castle". In 1786 Wilson refers to Whitfield as the seat of William Christmas. The nineteenth century house is still extant but no longer occupied. Photo of Whitfield Court

The property is labelled as Summerville on the 6-inch Ordnance Survey map but on the later 25-inch map the new house is labelled Corbally More.

Brady notes that it was rebuilt following a fire in the late nineteenth century. By 1906 it was owned by Robert Thomas Carew (jun) and valued at £70. It is still extant.
