House name	Description
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.
Drummond Cottage	Named on the 1st edition 6 inch Ordnance Survey Map (1836) this house with a farm of 125 acres was the home of the Kelly family in the mid-19th century. Thomas Kelly was resident holding the property from Mary Anne Kelly. Most of the townland belonged to the Porter family. A Mary Anne Jones Kelly of Priorland, Dundalk, owned 200 acres in county Monaghan in 1876. This cottage and its outbuildings date from the early 19th century and still survive.
Losset House	This house was built in the mid-19th century on the Shirley estate, close to Lough Fea Castle. It was valued at £8 and occupied by William Roarke.
Cabra Cottage	This house was the home of the Pratt family until Cormey Castle was purchased in 1813 and was renamed Cabra Castle. Cabra Cottage is shown on the first edition six inch Ordnance Survey map (publ. 1837) as a substantial building close to a mill race, quarry and the ruins of the first Cabra Castle. Bence Jones describes this building as an early 18th century villa possibly designed by Sir Edward Lovett Pearce. He writes that it was used as a ballroom following the Pratts move to live in their new home in Cormey. In the mid-19th century it was valued at £20 for rates and Colonel Joseph Pratt was the owner and occupier. The 25 inch map shows the building much reduced in size. Bence Jones writes that it was destroyed by fire in the 1950s.
Cabra Castle	The second Cabra Castle, probably incorporating the old Cormey Castle, was complete by the late 1830s. It is located on the county border between Cavan and Meath. A castellated building of Gothic appearance Cabra Castle had a rateable valuation of £70 in the mid-19th century when occupied and owned by Colonel Pratt. It continued to be the main residence of the Pratts until the mid -0th century when it was inherited by a relative, Mervyn Sheppard, who sold it in the mid-1960s. It now functions as a hotel. https://www.cabracastle.com/

Lewis records it as the residence of J. Pratt and Griffith’s Valuation records Francis Pratt as the occupier holding the property from Frances E. Pratt. It had a rateable valuation of £15. Occupied by George Pratt and his mother in 1901. Now a green field site.
