House name Description
Monalty House This house, located on the Marquess of Bath’s estate, dates from the 18th century and was the residence of the agent, Norman Steele, in 1798. In the 19th century Monalty House was the home of the Gartlan family. It was purchased by James Gartlan, a wealthy distiller in the town of Carrickmacross. Lewis records his son Thomas McEvoy Gartlan as the proprietor in the 1830s. The house is named on the 1st edition 6 inch Ordnance Survey Map (1836). Thomas M. Gartlan was recorded as the occupier in Griffith’s Valuation when the buildings were valued at £26. Members of the Gartlan family were still resident in the early 20th century. https://pdeanisland.wordpress.com/places/carrickmacross/monalty-house/

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.
