House name	Description
Fountainhill	The home of a branch of the Jennings family for over a hundred years, now a ruin. The house was held in fee by Patrick Blake at the time of Griffith's Valuation, when it was valued at £10.
Turin	Turin Castle has recently been renovated. The house no longer exists but some of the farm buildings are still visible. In the 1770s Kirwan esq occupied Turin Castle and in 1814 Arthur Browne was recorded as resident there. At the time of the first Ordnance Survey Samuel Lindsey Bucknall was living in Turin House and it was occupied by the Rutherfords in the 1850s.
Dalgan	Built in 1801 as the new home of the Kirwan family formerly of Claremount, Claremorris. It was bought by the Duke of Bedford in 1853 for Lady de Clifford, the wife of his first cousin. In the 1860s Henry Edward Joly and Charles Joly are recorded at Dalgan Park (''Connaught Telegraph'' 27 March 1867). In 1894 Slater noted it as the seat of Allan J. Algie. The house became a seminary for the missionary Society of St Columban in 1918. The Irish Tourist Association file describes the fine mansion as in ruins. It contained about 50 rooms and had been stripped of its roof and fittings about a year previously, circa 1944. It is now demolished.
River View [Donaghpatrick]	This house was occupied by James Kearns in the 1850s, leasing from the Duke of Bedford's estate, when the house was valued at £8. It is still extant and occupied.
Moyne Hill	Hughes writes that a Captain Carter bought Moyne Hill in 1852 from Charles Blake of Merlin Park. By 1906 James McDonnell was occupying the house. Soon afterwards it became the home of Thomas McDonagh of Headford Castle and his descendants still live there. The original house was knocked down circa 1950 and replaced by a modern bungalow. The original entrance gates and farm buildings are extant.
Mirehill	Home of Thomas Redington in 1814, Stepney St George in the 1820s and occupied by Michael Kelly in the 1850s, when it was valued at £4 and by Stephen R. Roche in 1906. It is no longer extant.
Shrulegrove	The ruin of the castle at Shrulegrove remains as a prominent feature in the village of Shrule. On the Ordnance Survey map of 1838 a substantial house and gardens are marked in the townland of Shrulegrove. All the townland, including a herd's house and offices valued at £1, were held by Richard Golding from the Duke of Bedford at the time of Griffith's Valuation.
