---|---|---|
Strandhill | At the time of Griffith's Valuation Patrick Buchan was leasing a property valued at £12 at Lecarrow or Strandhill, barony of Dromahaire, from James Fawcett. Lewis records Strand Hill as a seat of the Fawcett family in 1837. | |
Corry Lodge | At the time of Griffith's Valuation the house at Cavan, known as Corry Lodge, was owned by Francis N. Cullen and was valued at £12. In 1859 when the property was being sold it was claimed that the house had cost £1500 to build. It was the suject of a sale notice again in 1876 when the house was described as having 3 reception rooms and 5 good bedrooms. | |
Tawnahoney | At the time of Griffith's Valuation, Patrick Buchan, agent to the Creevlea Iron Works, was leasing buildings valued at £17 at Tawnahoney, barony of Dromahaire, from John Johnston. This property does not appear to be extant at the time of the 25-inch Ordnance Survey map in the 1890s. In 1786 Wilson had noted a property in the nearby townland of Gortermone as a seat of Mr. Johnston. It is not shown on the Ordnance Survey maps. | |
Grouse Lodge | In 1786 Wilson refers to Grouse Lodge as the seat of Mr. Seily. At the time of Griffith's Valuation, this townland was held by the Johnston estate but there is no property with a substantial valuation. The house is shown on the 1st edition Ordnance Survey map but a larger house appears to have been constructed later on an adjacent site as shown on the 25-inch map of the 1890s. This property is still extant. | |
Upper Thornhill House | Burke’s Landed Gentry of Ireland (1958) records the Nixon family of Thornhill in the 18th century. Thornhill was located on the Parker estate. By the mid-19th century William Nixon was the occupier. The house was valued at £6. The Nixon family continue to live here in the early 20th century. This house is no longer occupied. |
