The sale notice of 1878 mentions the existence of Newbrook House which "with some expenditure might be made a most desirable residence for a gentleman's family".
Loughscur Loughscur was originally a seat of the Reynolds family but later passed into the ownership of the Peyton family through marriage. In 1894 Slater refers to it as the seat of James Reynolds Peyton. However, this may refer instead to the Peyton property at Laheen.
