House name Description
Portsalon (Kilmacrenan) At the time of Griffiths Valuation in the 1850s, the representatives of Baptist J. Barton held this property in fee, when it was valued at £10. Colonel Barton later established the Portsalon Hotel and Portsalon golf club in this locality. In 1906 the buldings were in the ownership of Baptist J. Barton and valued at £105. It is no longer extant. [Grid Reference is for the Portsalon hotel]
Linsfort George Harvey held this property in fee at the time of Griffith’s Valuation in the 1860s. It was then valued at £25. In 1837, Lewis had noted it as the seat of William Henry “Hervey”. It is still extant and occupied. Photo of Linsfort
Mulroy House The National Inventory of Architectural Heritage suggests Mulroy House was built shortly after the publication of Griffiths Valuation in the late 1850s, as there is no substantial house recorded in Rawros townland in the valuation. There is a suggestion that it was primarily intended then as an estate headquarters rather than a country seat. Following the death of the 3rd Earl of Leitrim, it was inherited by the 4th Earl who greatly extended the property. In 1906, it was still in the ownership of the Clements estate and valued at almost £104. It is still extant and occupied. Photo of Mulroy House
Carrablagh House (Kilmacrenan) The National Inventory of Architectural Heritage suggests that this house was built c.1850 but there is no house with a substantial valuation in this townland at the time of Griffiths Valuation. In 1906 it was owned by Henry Chichester Hart and valued at almost £11. It is still extent and in use.
