House name	Description
Kinlough House (Oakfield House)	Kinlough House was originally known as Oakfield House and was the seat of the Johnston family from the early eighteenth century. It was remodelled in the 1820s by Robert Johnston and renamed Kinlough House. At the time of Griffith's Valuation, Kinlough House was occupied by William Johnston and was valued at £45. In 1906 James Johnston was the owner of the mansion house at Kinlough valued at £43 as well as 220 acres of untenanted demesne land. In 1943 the Irish Tourist Association Survey recorded that the house had been destroyed by fire some 20 years previously but that the gardens were still open to the public. Kinlough House is depicted in a ruined state in the Buildings of Ireland survey. Major new housing development is occuring on the site, adjacent to the walled garden.
Tynte Lodge	Joseph Tynte was leasing lands from the White estate and later purchased 30 acres of land from Lord Massy (who had inherited that estate) for the building of Tynte Lodge. The Inventory of Architectual Heritage, however, contends that Tynte Lodge was built in the eighteenth century so perhaps Tynte was reconstructing an earlier building. At the time of Griffith's Valuation the property at Tullaghan was valued at £18 and was leased by Tynte to Hugh Montgomery. In 1906 Mervyn Tynte was the owner of the mansion house at Tullaghan valued at £51.
Ward House	At the time of Griffith's Valuation this property was held in fee by James Ellis when the house was valued at £10. It is labelled Ward House on both the 1st and 25-inch edition Ordnance Survey maps. The original house is no longer extant.
Duncarbry Lodge	At the time of Griffith's Valuation John R. Dickson was the owner of two properties at Duncarbry, barony of Rossinver, one valued at £18 and the other at £10. Lewis records that Rev. Dickson was residing at Duncarbry Lodge in 1837.
Lareen	Lareen House was built in the 1820s by Luke White who died in 1854 and is buried in the old cemetery in Kinlough, the only member of the White family to be buried in the locality. Lareen then passed to the Massy family of county Limerick (Baron Massy of Duntrileague). In 1906 it, together with about 1200 acres of untenanted land in the area, was the property of Lord Massy. The house was valued at £23 at the time. Lareen was sold in the early 20th century to Maxwell Blacker Douglass who also bought fishing rights on both banks of the Drowes river and Bundrowes House. Lareen House burnt down in 1933. The Irish Tourist Association survey of 1943 mentions that it was in a ruined condition due to this fire.
Tullaghan House	At the time of Griffith's Valuation Tullaghan House was in the possession of Joseph P. Tynte who was leasing it from Col.White's estate. Subsequently it became a residence of the Dickson family. It is still extant.
Portnason	Portnason was owned by the representatives of Christopher Allingham at the time of Griffith’s Valuation but was unoccupied. The National Inventory of Architectural Heritage suggests it was built in the early 19th century and may have replaced an earlier house, also associated with the Allingham family. It is still extant.
Stonewold	Edward Allingham was leasing a property at Ballyhanna from the Conolly estate at the time of Griffiths Valuation when it was valued at £20. It is labelled on both the 1st and 25-inch edition Ordnance Survey maps as Stone Wold. It was later associated with the Crawford family. Stone Wold was one of a number of properties demolished in the mid-1940s when several townlands were inundated as part of the Erne Hydro-Electric scheme.
Willybrook	Edward Allingham was leasing this property from the Conolly estate at the time of Griffith’s Valuation, when it was valued at £20. The Allingham family owned several properties in this area of Ballyshannon throughout the 19th century. The site appears to be derelict now.
Fair View (Dane Ville)	The property at this site is labelled as Fair View on the 1st edition Ordnance Survey map of the late 1830s. On the 25-inch edition of the early 20th century it is labelled Dane Ville Lodge. At the time of Griffith’s Valuation, it was being leased by Mrs. Deane from the representatives of Colonel Dickson and Thomas Conolly’s estate when it was valued at £18. The site is now occupied by a modern house.
Rockfort Lodge	Charles Rochfort was occupying this property at the time of Griffith’s Valuation, leasing from the Dickson estate. It was then valued at £20. The house is still extant but does not appear to be in good repair.
Ferns Hill Glebe House	This property was held in fee by Reverend G. Tredennick at the time of Griffith’s Valuation, when it was valued at £24. It is labelled as both Glebe and Ferns Hill on all editions of the Ordnance Survey maps up to the 1940s. It is no longer extant.
Coolbeg
Cavangarden House	Thomas J. Atkinson held this property in fee at the time of Griffith’s Valuation, when it was valued at £20. It still held this valuation in 1906. A second property in the townland, valued at almost £8, was occupied by John Atkinson, leasing from William Atkinson. Lewis had also noted it as a seat of the Atkinson family in 1837. Cavangarden is still a working farm where guest accommodation is provided.
Fair View, later Dane Ville	The property at this site is labelled as Fair View on the 1st edition Ordnance Survey map of the late 1830s. On the 25-inch edition of the early 20th century it is labelled Dane Ville Lodge. At the time of Griffith’s Valuation, it was being leased by Mrs. Deane from the representatives of Colonel Dickson and Thomas Conolly’s estate when it was valued at £18. The site is now occupied by a modern house.
Rose Lodge or Dingleicoush	Penelope St. George was leasing this property from the Conolly estate at the time of Griffith’s Valuation, when it was valued at £17. The house is no longer extant. On some earlier maps it is labelled as Rose Lodge but on the 25-inch map of the early 20th century it is labelled Dingleicoush.
Willybrook	Edward Allingham was leasing this property from the Conolly estate at the time of Griffith’s Valuation, when it was valued at £20. The Allingham family owned several properties in this area of Ballyshannon throughout the 19th century. The site appears to be derelict now.
Higginstown House	Henry Coen was leasing Higginstown House from the Conolly estate at the time of Griffith’s Valuation, when it was valued at £13. By 1906 it was still in Coen ownership and valued at £20. It is now a ruin. Coen was, in turn, leasing a smaller property, known as Waterloo Cottage (G874606), to Frances Sheil. This house was valued at almost £10. It is still extant.
Stonewold	Edward Allingham was leasing a property at Ballyhanna from the Conolly estate at the time of Griffiths Valuation when it was valued at £20. It is labelled on both the 1st and 25-inch edition Ordnance Survey maps as Stone Wold. This house was recorded as the address of Johnston Teevan, solicitor, at the time of his death in 1872. It was one of a number of properties demolished in the mid-1940s when several townlands were inundated as part of the Erne Hydro-Electric scheme.
Wardtown	In 1837 Lewis recorded "Wardton" as a residence of J. ffolliott. At the time of Griffiths Valuation it was leased from the ffolliott estate by Henry Likely and valued at £20. The National Inventory of Architectural Heriage suggests the house was built c.1739-1740 but has been out of use since 1916 and is now a ruin.
Rockville (Ballyshannon)	At the time of Griffiths Valuation in the 1850s, this property was being leased to Mary O'Neill by Edward Jones. Local sources suggest, however, that it was a residence of the ffolliott family and burned in the 1920s.
