House name	Description
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.
Currygrane House	In 1837 Lewis noted “Curraghgrane” as the seat of W.L. Galbraith. At the time of Griffiths Valuation in the 1850s, William F. Ryan was leasing this property from the Misses Bond, when it was valued at £20. In 1906 it was valued at over £47 and in the ownership of James Wilson. This was the birthplace of Field Marshal Sir Henry Wilson, Britain’s chief military advisor at the end of WWI, assassinated in London in 1922. Currygrane House was burned a few weeks later and subsequently demolished. Extensive outbuildings remain at the site.
Garvagh House	At the time of Griffiths Valuation in the 1850s, Robert Grier held this property in fee, when it was valued at £20. In 1837, Lewis had referred to “Lakeview” as the seat of R. Grier. In 1906 James Wilson was recorded as the owner and the property was still valued at £20. It was later demolished.
Vicarsfield	Reverend Theodore O’Moore was leasing this property from Robert Grier at the time of Griffiths Valuation in the early 1850s. It is now known as Vicarsfield House. The National Built Heritage Service suggests it was built in the 1820s.
Williamstown House (Longford)	At the time of Griffiths Valuation in the early 1850s, Williamstown House was leased by William Allen from the Edgeworth estate, when it was valued at £10. A much smaller building appears at the site on the 1st edition Ordnance survey map. The National Built Heritage Service suggests the existing Williamstown was built c.1847. It is still in use. In the 1870s William Allen was recorded as the owner of almost 200 acres in County Longford.
Viewmount House (Longford)	Edward C. Hill was leasing this property from Francis Hughes at the time of Griffiths Valuation in the early 1850s, when it was valued at £17. It is visible but not labelled on the 1st edition OS map but is shown as Viewmount House on the later 25-inch edition. The Ordnance Survey Name Books described it as 'a good dwelling house with a good kitchen garden' in the mid-1830s. The National Built Heritage Service associates the property with the Cuffe and Pakenham families and dates the original house to the mid-18th century. It has, in the past, been operated as a luxury guesthouse
Oldtown House (Longford)	James and George Sydserffe were leasing this property from the Gregg estate at the time of Griffiths Valuation in the early 1850s, when it was valued at £25. The original Valuation Office books from 1839 had assigned it a valuation of £14. In 1837 Lewis had recorded “Old Bawn” as the seat of Thornton Gregg. The Ordnance Survey Name Books noted that 'it had a large garden and extensive out offices'. Oldtown House is still extant and in use.
Newtownbond House	At the time of Griffiths Valuation in the early 1850s, James Auchmuty was leasing Newtownbond House from Henry Montford Bond, when it was valued at over £30. In 1906 it was owned by William Bond and valued at almost £32. It was demolished in the 20th century though estate architecture, including the entrance gates, remain.
Greenfield House	At the time of Griffiths Valuation in the mid-1850s, this house was vacant though John Lynch was described as the immediate lessor. The house was valued at £12 at the time. The valuers' records from 1840 indicate that it was then occupied by William Biggers and valued at £13. The house is still extant.
Carrigglas Manor (Carrickglass)	The National Built Heritage Service notes that the current Carrigglas Manor was built in the mid-19th century close to the site of an earlier Carrickglass House. Leet referred to this earlier house as the seat of Sir T. Newcomen in 1814. At the time of Griffiths Valuation in the early 1850s it was leased from the Provost and fellows of TCD by Thomas Lefroy and valued at £90. The demesne remained in the Lefroy family until c.2005. The house is not currently in use.
Corboy (Longford)	At the time of Griffiths Valuation in the 1850s this property was leased by Bridget Phillips from the Fetherston estate and valued at £10. The National Built Heritage Service indicates that the house was later the home of John Philips, the last MP for County Longford. It had later become derelict but redevelopment has taken place at the site.
Farraghroe House	Willoughby Bond held this property in fee at the time of Griffiths Valuation in the early 1850s when it was valued at £55. Lewis had also referred to ‘’Farra’’ as his seat in 1837. In 1905 it was owned by James W. Bond and valued at £67. The house was demolished in the 20th century but much estate architecture, including the Steward’s House, remains.
Kilmoyle	At the time of Griffiths Valuation in the early 1850s, Alexander McCormick was leasing this property from the estate of Captain W. Bond, when it was valued at £7. The 1906 Untenanted Demesnes survey records a valuation of almost £14 for the property when it was still part of the Bond estate. A modern house and large farm occupy the site now.
