Robert Fair of Bushfield had an only daughter, Jane, who married Thomas Ruttledge of Bloomfield and their second son took the surname Ruttledge Fair.

His daughter and heiress married Dominick Browne of Castlemagarret and ownership of Claremount appears to have passed to the Castlemagarret Brownes. The Kirwans and Denis Browne of Westport lived in the house in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. It was bought by Murray McGregor Blacker from Lord Oranmore and Browne in 1858 for £4,250. Blacker owned the house until 1874. In 1877 the house and about 313 acres were sold to the local parish priest by Thomas D. Maguire for the purpose of establishing a Convent of Mercy. The nuns ran a girls' secondary school in the house. In October 1906 just over 300 acres of Claremount was vested in the Congested Districts' Board.

The house, built in 1694, was destroyed by fire in August 1811 and a replacement built in the Tudor Gothic style. Robert Graham, in his journal of September 1836, refers to the fire and that "the present house is constructed out of the old offices, but is amazingly comfortable as far as it goes".

Millbrook House	There is a lithograph of this house attached to the sales rental of Lord Oranmore and Browne's estate in 1854. The sale rental states that the late tenant [Lawrence Glynn] recently expended a large sum in building a residence on this lot. This later building is labelled Millbrook House on the 25-inch Ordnance Survey map of the 1890s. It is no longer extant.
Coarsefield	The Grays were in possession of Coarsefield by the late 1830s. The present house was probably built by the Tighe family who bought Coarsefield from the Grays and sold it to the Stephens family in the early 20th century.
Brookhill	Brookhill was situated on church land held by the Gonnes, who leased the house to the Kirwans in the late 1770s. Occupied by the Lambert family from the 1790s to the 1940s when it was sold to Gerald Maguire, a solicitor in Claremorris. Now the home of the Noone family.

Castlegrove	Originally a Blake house, it was occupied by the Lewins from 1888. Wilson refers to Castle-Grove as the seat of Mr. Blake in 1786.

It included a ballroom, oak staircase and numerous bedrooms. It was bought by John William Cannon. The sale rental includes a lithograph of the house. Castlegrove was burnt in 1922 and is now a ruin.

The house was leased to Edward O'Kelly in 1881 for 31 years. By the early 20th century it was in the hands of the Congested Districts' Board and passed onto the Land Commission who sold the house and 220 acres to the Gordon family. In 1971 Henry Gordon sold the house and remaining 20 acres. The house has been extensively renovated in the early 21st century by the Costellos.
Siller House	On the 1838 Ordnance Survey map Siller House is marked as a substantial residence in the townland of Kilcloony. However by the time of Griffith's Valuation there was no house of more than £2 valuation in the townland of Kilcloony. There is no house at this location on the 25-inch Ordnance map of the 1890s.
Ironpool	A Jenings home, described as a "good thatched 2 -storey dwelling house" in 1852, occupied by George Jenings. It was held in fee by William Ogilvie at the time of Griffith's Valuation when it was valued at £6. It is now a ruin.

Castletown	The Knight of Glin stated that this was a late 18th century and early 19th century house built for the O'Haras. This may be the residence known as Tullinadaly, occupied by William Brannock, recorded in 1814, and by James Kirwan in 1837. Earlier, in 1786, Wilson refers to "Tullinadaly" as the seat of Mr. Bodkin. Valued at £15 and occupied by Laurence Mullins at the time of Griffith's Valuation. It is now a ruin.

Oory/Coarsefield	It is probable that the townland of Coarsefield was part of Oory in the 18th century and that Oory was divided into two townlands at the time of the first Ordnance Survey. The remains of an old house are still visible at Coarsefield, close to the present house, and it is believed that this was Oory House, home of the Bourkes and later owned by the Nettervilles. In 1814 "Course-field" belonged to James Netterville. The sales rental of the Gray estate of Coarsefield in 1861 refers to one wall remaining of the old Netterville house.
Knocknagur	Sometimes spelt Cnocnagur.
Rockfort	Valued at £4 in the mid 19th century when it was occupied by Thomas Bourke who held from David Ruttledge. The Westport Estate Papers contain two 17th century maps of Levallyroe in the possession of Gerald Dillon and held from the Blakes. The Malones also had an interest in Levallyroe and Boleyboy.
Gardenfield House [Kilcommon]	Another Bowen home, occupied by William Bowen in 1814. The townland was in the possession of Henry Martin Blake at the time of Griffith's Valuation.

At the time of Griffith's Valuation the townland was owned by John Treston who also held a herd's house there. The house is labelled Cloontreston on twentieth century maps. Buildings are still extant at the site.
