One, leased from Andrew Hamilton, was valued at £95, while the second leased from the representatives of John Hamilton, was valued at £37.

Brown Hall The house at Brownhall was valued at £35 at the time of Griffith’s Valuation, when it was occupied by James Hamilton, junior who held it in fee. Brownhall is still extant and occupied. In 1837 Lewis recorded it as the seat of Edward Hamilton.The house is labelled Brownhall on all editions of Ordnance Survey maps and a house remains at the site. The National Inventory of Architectural Heritage suggests the original part was constructed in the late seventeenth or early eighteenth century but the house currently in use is later than that.

It is labelled Glebe House on the 1st edition Ordnance Survey map but as Murvagh House on the 25-inch map of the early twentieth century. It is still extant. Photo of Murvagh House
