House name Description
Ballymackney Ballymackney House is named on the 1st edition 6 inch Ordnance Survey Map (1836) which shows a large walled garden close by. Ballymackney was located on the estate of the Marquess of Bath. Lewis records the proprietor as W. Daniel. It became the home of George Henry Gartlan and his wife Mary McMullan of Cabra, county Down, who married in 1846. Seven years later they left Ballymackney to live at Cabra. At the time of Griffith’s Valuation circa 1860 the house was occupied by David Grimstone who held it from Thomas Jackson. The buildings were valued at £20. This house is still the centre of a farming enterprise just outside the village of Ballymackney. Photo of Ballymackney

Loughderry Located close to the shore of Lough Derry this house was the residence of S. Pendleton in the 1830s. The house may have been extended by the time of Griffith’s Valuation circa 1860 when it was valued at £17. It was occupied by George Renwick [Rennick] who held the property from William Brownlow. Family sources suggest George Rennick was formerly the proprietor of the Shirley Arms Hotel in Carrickmacross and the King's Arms in Clones, before retiring to Derry sometime between 1846-1860. Loughderry House has been the home of the Rennick family for many generations.
