| Castlegrace | This property has been the home of the Grubb family since the mid 19th century. Griffith's Valuation indicates that it was then held from the Earl of Glengall and the house, offices and flour mill were valued at £122. The National Inventory of Architectural Heritage dates the present house circa 1860 although a lithograph of a very similar building is included in the Glengall sale rental of November 1853 for Castlegrace. Lewis records in 1837 that an extensive flour mill had recently been built by Samuel Grubb of Clogheen. The buildings at Castlegrace were valued at £115 in 1906. This house is still a Grubb family home. http://www.vee.ie/page2.html |

| Shanbally Castle | Bence Jones writes that this was the largest of John Nash's Irish castles, built circa 1812 for Cornelius O'Callaghan 1st Viscount Lismore. It was valued at £151 in the mid 19th century. Inherited by two daughters of the Marquess of Ormonde Lady Beatrice Pole Carew and Lady Constance Butler following the death of their cousin the 2nd and last Viscount Lismore in 1898. The Irish Tourist Association Survey in the early 1940s records that the building was taken over by the military authorities "for the duration of the present emergency". Sold by Major Patrick Pole Carew in 1954 and demolished in 1957. |
