House name	Description
Hollybrook	In 1786, Wilson refers to Boullybeg as the seat of Mr. Crean. This house was the home of the Creans and Crean Lynches. At the time of Griffith's Valuation the house was occupied by Ephraim and George Anderson, leasing from Patrick C. Lynch, when it was valued at £25. It is now a ruin.
Towerhill	A late 18th century house, occupied by the Blakes until the mid 20th century, now a ruin. 1n 1894 Slater refers to it as the seat of Colonel Maurice Blake. It was valued at £60 at the time of Griffith's Valuation, when it was occupied by Valentine O'Conor Blake.
Togher	Originally a Lambert residence but occupied by George Ruttledge by 1837. It was held in fee by John Hood at the time of Griffith's Valuation when it was valued at £13.. It became the home of his fourth son, Charles Ralph Hood. This house is now completely demolished.
Bloomfield	Built circa 1776, it was the seat of the Ruttledge family. At the time of Griffith's Valuation it was held in fee by Robert Ruttledge and valued at £50. It was also the seat of Robert Ruttledge in 1894. Sold to the Land Commission in 1924 and later abandoned following a fire.
Newbrook	In 1786 Wilson mentions Newbrook, the "elegant and delightful seat" of Henry Bingham. This house burnt down in 1837 and was not rebuilt. Only a small amount of the walls of the house remain but the yard buildings are still in use.
Summerhill House (Kilmaine)	The residence of Parsons Persse, agent to Lord Clanmorris, at the time of Griffith's Valuation when the house was valued at £8. Summerhill no longer exists but the yard buildings still remain.
Garriestown	This was a Walsh family home in the 19th century. At the time of Griffith's Valuation the house was leased by Thomas Walsh from Robert Rutledge when it was valued at £11. Garriestown is now a large farming enterprise and the house is still lived in.
Cappagh	Cappagh was occupied by James Tighe at the time of Griffith's Valuation when the house, valued at £4, is described as a herd's house. It was built some time before the publication of the 1st edition Ordnance Survey map of 1838 and is still extant and well-maintained.
Coarsefield	The Grays were in possession of Coarsefield by the late 1830s. The present house was probably built by the Tighe family who bought Coarsefield from the Grays and sold it to the Stephens family in the early 20th century.
Lehinch	A house marked on the Taylor and Skinner's map but not on the first Ordnance Survey map. In 1786 Wilson refers to it as the seat of Valentine Blake. The walls of the garden still remain and this was the venue for the Hollymount Show at one time.
Oory/Coarsefield	It is probable that the townland of Coarsefield was part of Oory in the 18th century and that Oory was divided into two townlands at the time of the first Ordnance Survey. The remains of an old house are still visible at Coarsefield, close to the present house, and it is believed that this was Oory House, home of the Bourkes and later owned by the Nettervilles. In 1814 "Course-field" belonged to James Netterville. The sales rental of the Gray estate of Coarsefield in 1861 refers to one wall remaining of the old Netterville house.
