Glen House (Clonmany) | At the time of Griffith’s Valuation, Glen House was occupied by Michael Doherty, who was also leasing a mill in the area. The house was valued at £15. In 1906 it was owned by Edward Doherty and still valued at £15. The Glen House is still extant, offering guest accommodation. The house history suggests that it was built in the 18th on part of what had been a demesne known as Dresdan owned by the McLaughlin family since the 17th century. In 1837 Lewis refers to Dresden Demesne as the seat of T.L. Metcalfe. |

Mulroy House | The National Inventory of Architectural Heritage suggests Mulroy House was built shortly after the publication of Griffiths Valuation in the late 1850s, as there is no substantial house recorded in Rawros townland in the valuation. There is a suggestion that it was primarily intended then as an estate headquarters rather than a country seat. Following the death of the 3rd Earl of Leitrim, it was inherited by the 4th Earl who greatly extended the property. In 1906, it was still in the ownership of the Clements estate and valued at almost £104. It is still extant and occupied. |
