| Waterview | Frederick Blennerhassett was leasing this property to Patrick Trant at the time of Griffith's Valuation, when it was valued at £6 15s. Both Lewis, in 1837, and Leet, in 1814, refer to it as the residence of P.Trant. Bary quotes O'Donovan that Waterview was built by Captain Trant in the early years of the nineteenth century. It remained a residence of the Trant family until the middle of the century when it seems to have been bought by the O'Connells. It was sold to the Moriarty family in 1927 and is still standing and inhabited. | |
| Kilkeaveragh House | Frederick Blennerhassett was leasing this property to Francis Chute at the time of Griffith's Valuation, when it was valued at £13. Lewis notes Kilkeaveragh House as the seat of Reverend J. Maunsel in 1837. Bary quotes O'Donovan who claimed that Francis Chute had built this house in 1836 but it is possible that he renovated an earlier property. The house is described as "in ruins" on the 1895 OS Map but there is a house labelled Seamount a short distance away, which Bary states was built by the Blennerhassetts and is still extant. Details of ground plan of Kilkeveragh House are held in the National Library of Ireland, Ms.13,631(7). | |
| Belville (Iveragh) | James Butler was occupying this property at the time of Griffith's Valuation, when it was valued at £9 15s. Both Lewis, in 1837, and Leet, in 1814, record it as the seat of Whitwell Butler. Bary states that it was probably built by Whitwell Butler in the late eighteenth century. In 1906 the property was owned by Arabella Butler and was valued at £8 5s. It continued to be used by the family until the end of the twentieth century but is now unoccupied and in poor repair. |
