| Heathfield (Kilmacrenan) | Reverend Alexander Nixon held a property valued at £17 10s in fee at Ray in the 1850s. No substantial house is labelled in Ray on the 1st edition Ordnance Survey map. However, Heathfield appears on both the 25-inch and later 6-inch edition, labelled “in ruins”. | |
| Ballyconnell (Kilmacrenan) | Ballyconnell House was held in fee by Wybrant Olpherts at the time of Griffith’s Valuation, when it was valued at £45. It was reputedly built by the Olpherts family in the 18th century. In 1837 Lewis noted it as the seat of Rev. J. Olphert. In 1906 it was the property of Sir John Olphert and valued at almost £46. Ballyconnell is still extant. It served as a school during the 20th century. Local sources suggest it was later purchased by Udaras na Gaeltachta. |

| Horn Head House | In 1786 Wilson referred to Horn Head House as the seat of Mr. Stewart. Lewis recorded Horn Head as the seat of W. Stewart in 1837. At the time of Griffith’s Valuation, it was occupied by Reverend Charles Frederick Stewart and valued at £27. In 1906 it was the property of Captain Charles F. Stewart and valued at almost £28. The National Inventory of Architectural Heritage suggests it was associated with the Stewart family since the early 18th century. It was sold by the family in the 1930s after it appeared that unstable sand dunes were encroaching on the site and has since been unoccupied. Since 2021 some work has been underway to renovate the property. |
