House name	Description
Raheen	Raheen is associated with both the Kilkelly and O'Hara families. In the 1770s it seems to have been a residence of the Taylor family, with whom the O'Haras intermarried. In the 1830s the OS Name Books record it as "a neat house, in form like a cottage two stories high." Raheen House was badly damaged by fire in the latter part of the twentieth century. The entrance gateway is still extant.
Castle Taylor/Ballymagrath	The house at Castle Taylor, originally known as Ballymacrath, was built adjacent to a tower house. The Taylor family had been settled there since the 17th century. In 1837 Lewis recorded it as the seat of Gen. Sir. J. Taylor. In 1894 and 1906 it was the residence of Walter Shawe Taylor and was valued at £50. It is now in ruins.
Cregaclare	The Ordnance Survey Name Books mention that Cregaclare House was built in 1802. In the 1830s it is described as having elegant gardens and a Hot House producing various types of fruit. Cregaclare House is recorded by Lewis as the seat of J.S. Lambert in 1837. At the time of Griffith's Valuation it was leased by James Lambert to Lord Clanmorris and was valued at £50. Bought by Lord Clanmorris in the late 1850s, it was still his property in 1894 and 1906. Only the ruins of a basement and remains of stable yard and gateways are visible. Mausoleum located at M470118 in the ruins of old RC church. This was originally a burial place for the Bingham family (Lords Clanmorris) but those buried there were later re-interred in the grounds of the Church of Ireland, Ardrahan.
Limepark	In 1855 the house at Limepark north, parish of Kilthomas, barony of Dunkellin, was in the possession of George Persse. Earlier in the 19th century the house was occupied by Thomas Wilton. This property was recorded as the seat of the Wallace family by Lewis in 1837. During the 1916 Rising it afforded shelter to the rebels from Galway. It is now a ruin. The farm of which it is a part was offered for sale in 2024.
Newpark	The Ordnance Survey Name books state that the townland was the property of John Nolan of Prospect, Gort in the 1830s. The house appears to have been built after that time. At the time of Griffith's Valuation, this property was leased by John Nolan to Andrew Nolan. In 1906 it was still the property of Andrew Nolan and was valued at £17. It is no longer extant.
Ballylee Castle	Lewis records the Carrig family as residennt at Ballylee Castle in 1837. At the time of Griffith's Valuation, Patrick Carrick was leasing a herd's house, old castle and land from William Gregory at Ballylee, barony of Kiltartan. The property was valued at £5 at the time. In the early century Ballylee Castle was bought and renovated by the poet, W.B. Yeats. After falling into disrepair again it was acquired by the Office of Public Works as a museum to the poet. It was severely damaged by flooding in 2009 and is not currently open to the public.
Lydacan Lodge	Lydacan Lodge is recorded in the OS Name Books as the residence of John O'Hara. On the 1st edition OS maps the house is recorded as Lydacan Lodge. At the time of Griffith's Valuation Lydacan is recorded as the property of James O'Hara where he held a herd's house and 200 acres.
