Moatfarrell House	At the time of Griffiths Valuation in the early 1850s, Moatfarrell was leased by William F. Ryan from the estate of Edward Murphy when it was valued at £18. In the early 1840 it had been occupied by Laurence O'Rourke. The National Built Heritage Survey suggests the extensive outbuildings were constructed in the mid-nineteenth century and notes that the property was occupied by the Fegan family in the 1890s. The building is still extant.
Bawn House (Longford)	In 1837 Lewis described Bawn House as the property of Mr. Fox but the seat of Arthur Griffith. The Ordnance Survey Name Books note the occupant as Mr. Babington in the mid-1830s. John Daly was leasing the house from John S. Kirwan’s estate at the time of Griffiths Valuation in the early 1850s when it was valued at almost £19. In 1906 it was the property of Henry B. Armstrong and valued at £13. There is a ruin at the site.

At the time of Griffiths Valuation in the early 1850s it was leased by the representatives of Thomas Conroy to Henry Crawford, when it was valued at almost £19. This is the same valuation assigned to it by the original Valuation Office books in 1839 when the occupier was John Jessop. The National Built Heritage Service suggests it was demolished c.1980. A substantial stable block and other estate architecture survives.
