House name	Description
Nixon Lodge/Griffith Lodge	A mid-18th century house, named Nixon Lodge on the first edition 6 inch Ordnance Survey map (publ. 1837). It was the home of the Reverend Andrew Nixon and his wife Marianne French of Frenchpark, county Roscommon, in the 18th century. Their son Humphrey had eight children. Nixon Lodge was later known as Griffith Lodge and Griffith’s Valuation records Dorothea Griffith as the occupant. She held the property in fee and the buildings were valued at £16.10.0. Occupied by the Smith family at the beginning of the 20th century. Somewhat reduced in size this house is still extant and occupied.
Aubawn	Described by Mulligan as a ‘medium-size Late Georgian villa’. In 1814 Henry Lenauze was resident at Aubawn, Killeshanadra and Lewis records Aughabawn as the home of the Reverend J. Vernon. The Upton Papers (RIA) contain the will of M. Story of Aubawn, 1817. By the mid-1850s Richard Fox was the owner and occupier of Aubawn, with a rateable valuation of £21. In 1876 the address of George De La Poer Beresford, owner of 570 acres in the county, was Auburn, Killeshandra. Douglas G. Adams occupied the house in 1901, holding it from Beresford while a land steward William Gordon and his family were resident in 1911. This house has been renovated and modernised.
Croaghan House	A small house named on the first edition six inch Ordnance Survey map (publ. 1837). The building was later extended and in the mid-1850s was occupied by the Reverend Allan, who held it from Richard Carson. It was valued at £11. David Hamill Crawford, land agent, and family were resident in the early 20th century, this building appears to be still extant.
Drummully House	In the mid-19th century a house valued at £10 was owned and occupied by Catherine Dickson in Drumully East. By the early 20th century a substantial house named Drom Mullac is shown on the 25 inch map when the Lough family were resident. There are references to Albert Hutton of Drummully House, Killashandra in 1876; Mrs Louisa Frances Hickson, widow of William Murray Hickson in 1884 and Thomas Lough MP of Drummully in 1898. This house became a convent and was demolished in 2012.
Castle Hamilton	In the mid-18th century Castle Hamilton came into the possession of the Southwell family through marriage with a Hamilton co-heiress. It remained in Southwell ownership until about the 1840s. Both Leet and Lewis record members of the Southwell family as resident. Lewis describes the house as ‘a spacious mansion surrounded by an extensive and highly embellished demesne’ adjoining the town of Killeshandra. The buildings were valued at £50 in the mid-19th century, by which time James Hamilton was owner and occupier. The Hamiltons were still resident at the time of the censuses of 1901 and 1911. The house was accidentally destroyed by fire in 1911 but a fine farm yard survives.
Portaliff House	Portaliff House was located on the Castle Hamilton estate, north of Mill Lough and a little south of Killashandra. In the mid-19th century it was occupied by Captain F.H.B. Philips when it was valued at £12 for rates. Portaliff House is listed as a protected structure.
