House name	Description
Glenboy	There were two houses at Glenboy townland, one at least of which was part of the Clements estate but appears to have been leased for long periods to the Algeo family. John Marcus Clements, MP for Leitim, is described as "of Glenboy". He was nephew of Robert Clements, 1st Earl of Leitrim. A house at Glenboy was the residence of John Algeo in 1814. Glenboy is described as a seat of the Algeo family by Lewis in 1837 while Hollymount is the residence of the Armstrong family. At the time of Griffith's Valuation, Lewis Algeo was leasing house at Glenboy, valued at £25, to Simon Armstrong while he was also leasing a house from the Clements estate valued at £12. Houses are still extant at these locations.
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.
Larkfield	In 1786 Wilson refers to Larkfield as the seat of Mr. Donnell. Larkfield is described as a very plain house but nevertheless its construction is alleged to have caused financial embarrassment for the O'Donnell estate. It was valued at £15 at the time of Griffith's Valuation when it was occupied by John O'Donnell. After the purchase of the estate by the Land Commission in the 1930s the house was demolished and another house has been constructed on the site.
Belhavel	Belhavel was the home of Hugh Lyons Montgomery, built during the Famine. The family took up residence there in 1850. Slater refres to it as the seat of Hugh Lyons Montgomery in 1894. The Irish Tourist Association survey in the 1940s records that "every stone was taken away to build houses throughout the district". An earlier castle also in Belhavel is reputed to have been built by the first Montgomery to settle in the area in the seventeenth century.
Glenfarne Hall	Glenfarne Hall, overlooking Lough MacNean, was built around 1820 for Charles Henry Tottenham. In 1906 it was owned by Col. J.G. Adamson and was valued at £50. It was subsequently a holiday home of Edward Harland of Harland & Wolf shipyards in Belfast. The 1943 Irish Tourist Association survey recorded that only the gutted ruins of the house remained.The area has been extensively afforested since then and is now part of a forest park owned by Coillte.
Hollymount (Drumahaire)	Hollymount House is said to have been built around 1730. It was leased to Simon Armstrong by Lewis Algeo. Home of Thomas Corscadden in 1910. It is now a ruin but the outbuildings survive.
Fortland Cottage	Fortland Cottage was built on part of the Cullen estate in the 18th and was the home of Jane Cullen and her husband G. Gledstanes in the mid-nineteenth century.
Brookfield House	Arthur Loftus Tottenham was leasing a house valued at £14 to James Tate here in 1856.
Fortland House	John Massy was leasing a building valued at £8 to John Rutherford here in 1856. This is Fortland House which is still extant and occupied.
Glasdrumman More	William Palmer was the owner of a property valued over £7 at Glassdrumman More, barony of Rosclogher at the time of Griffith's Valuation. The house is still extant and occupied.
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.
Dunmuckrum	At the time of Griffiths Valuation, David Stewart, senior, was leasing a property valued at £10 from the Conolly estate.
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.
Tuam House	Located on the Saunders estate, outside the village of Blacklion, the present house replaced a former building marked on the first edition six inch Ordnance Survey map (publ. 1837). The Hassards lived at Tuam in the 18th century. Griffith’s Valuation records Hugh Bracken as the occupier, when the building was valued at £5. Hugh married Elizabeth Copeland and died in 1861. In 1876, James Bracken of Tuam House owned 51 acres county Cavan and 1,268 acres in county Fermanagh. Members of the Bracken family were resident at Tuam throughout the 20th century. The name of this house is sometimes spelt Toam. It is well maintained and occupied.
Tircahan Lodge	Francis Hassard of Tircahan Lodge, also known as Rockwood, is recorded in a sale rental of the Encumbered Estates Court in 1852. He sold part of his estate to Robert Hutton. In the mid-19th century Tircahan Lodge, a building named on the first edition six inch Ordnance Survey map (publ. 1837), was occupied by Henry Breen, who held the house, valued at £8, from Robert Hutton. It is located south of Swanlinbar. In the 1890s the original lodge was replaced by a larger more compact building which still stands today although now derelict. Robert Hutton JP lived here with his family in the early 20th century. In 1906, Georgina Hutton was recorded as the occupier when the 'mansion' house was valued at £17 for rates.
