| Ballymacool | At the time of Griffiths Valuation, John R. Boyd was leasing this property from the Ecclesiastical Commissioners, when it was valued at £50. In 1837 Lewis had also recorded Ballymacool as the seat of J. Boyd. The National Inventory of Architectural Heritage suggests it was built c.1770 and continued in the ownership of the Boyd family until 1940. It is now a ruin. |

| Rockhill House (Raphoe North) | At the time of Griffiths Valuation in the 1850s, Rockhill was held in fee by John Vandeleur Stewart when it was valued at £55. Local sources suggest the house was acquired by Stewart from the Chambers family in the 1830s. O'Carroll discusses the ownership by the Cooch and Pratt families of the Rockhill estate. In 1814 Leet had recorded Daniel Chambers as the occupant of Rockhill. By 1906 it was owned by Alexander C.H. Stewart and valued at £52. Later in the 20th century it served as a base of the Irish Defence forces. It is now a luxury hotel. |
