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. | |

It is labelled "Cloonshannagh House" on the 1st edition OS Map but as "Coolamber Manor" on the later editions. The National Built Heritage Service suggests it was built c.1830 and significantly extended c.1880. It is still extant, having previously functioned as a rehabilitation facility. Extensive estate architecture also survives. |

Lissard survived into the twentieth century but is no longer extant. | |
| Ballinree House {Longford) | Phillip Kiernan was leasing Ballinree House from the Moore O’Farrell estate at the time of Griffiths Valuation, when it was valued at £5. A larger house is shown on the 25-inch Ordnance Survey map of the early 20th century. A house and large farm occupy the site now. This house was associated with the Farrell family in the 18th century as local sources recall "Bonny Pat Farrell" a United Irishman killed at the Battle of Granard in 1798. | |
| Manor Mill House | William Cox was leasing this property from the Tuite estate at the time of Griffiths Valuation in the 1850s, when it was valued at £23 and included a mill.

Reverend Francis Kane was afterwards rector of the parish of Fenagh, County Leitrim, from 1869 until his death in 1882. He had previously been vicar in the parish of Russagh, nearby to Street, County Westmeath, 1848-1855. | |
| Rockfield/Cromlyn | A house known as Rockfield (N295657) is named on the first edition OS map at the southern end of Glen Lough. The lands and house were leased to John Crawford by Sir Peter Nugent in 1795. Matthew Crawford was resident in 1814. A later house a short distance to the east was built by the Crawfords in the late 1840s according to the sale rental of 2 December 1862, ‘The house, which is a spacious and well-built mansion erected within the last fifteen years at an expense of upwards of £2,000 … The house contains on the basement-story nine rooms, including kitchen, wine-cellar, scullery etc with every accommodation for servants. There are on the first floor four large reception-rooms, one dressing room, two pantries, bath-room etc. On the second floor, seven commodious and well-proportioned sleeping apartments besides bathrooms etc.’ This house was originally known as Rockfield and was valued at £36 at the time of Griffith’s Valuation (publ. 1854) when occupied by Matthew Crawford. The name of the house may have been changed to ‘Cromlyn’ when it was purchased by Charles John Battersby of Ballinalack in 1862. It is named as Cromlyn on the 25 inch map (circa 1914). The house remained in the possession of the Battersby family well into the 20th century. |

Valued at £13.15 at the time of Griffith’s Valuation (publ. 1854), it was occupied by the representatives of A P Bond who held it in fee. The present house was in the ownership of William Perry Bond JP, in the 1880s. The house has had various owners in the 20th century and was for sale in 2017, see https://www.businesspost.ie/article/high-class-at-ardglass-co-westmeath/ | |
| Newpark Lodge | Newpark Lodge named on both the first edition OS map and the 25 inch map. Occupied by James Auchmuty JP in 1837 and at the time of Griffith’s Valuation (publ. 1854) when he held the house valued at £10 from the representative of A P Boyd.

| Ballygarve | At the time of Griffiths Valuation, in the early 1850s, Christopher Reynolds was leasing this property from Robert Wybrants. The Ordnance Survey Name Books mention a ‘’good farmhouse’’ in the townland of Ballygarve in the 1830s. This property is now derelict. | |
| 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. |
|
| Daramona House | The National Built Heritage Service suggests this house was built c.1850 by the Wilson family. In later times there was also an observatory at the site.

|
| Castlerea (Longford) | At the time of Griffiths Valuation in the early 1850s, John Bole was leasing Castlerea from the Kirwan estate, when it was valued at £15. In 1837 Lewis had noted Castlerea as the residence of Mrs. Bole. The Ordnance Survey Name Books suggest that the townland was the property of the Jessop estate in the 1830s. The 1906 Untenanted Demesnes report notes it as the property of Charles Webb with a valuation of £15. It is still extant. |
|
| Park Place | At the time of Griffiths Valuation in the 1850s, Ambrose Bole was leasing Park Place from the Jessop estate, when it was valued at over £27. The National Built Heritage Service dates the remaining walled garden evidence to the late 18th century and suggests that Park Place was the residence of the Moffat family. The Ordnance Survey Name Books of the 1830s note that the demesne was “cultivated by Mr. Robinson, the County Treasurer”. This is likely to be John Robinson, who, according to the Valuation Office Books, was the occupier in 1839, when the house was valued at £16. Family history sources suggest Ambrose Bole was a land agent, who managed the estates of the King-Harman and Shuldham families during the second half of the 19th century. Park Place was demolished in the 20th century but some estate architecture remains. |
|
| Moydow Glebe | In 1837 Lewis noted Moydow Glebe as the residence of Reverend Armstrong. At the time of Griffiths Valuation in the 1850s it was held in fee by Reverend William C. Armstrong when it was valued at over £20. The house is extant but disused. |

At the time of Griffiths Valuation in the 1850s it was owned by his representatives and valued at £46. The National Built Heritage Service suggests the house was built c.1730 and altered twice in the nineteenth century. It was partially damaged by fire in 1922 and again in 1948. In the later twentieth century it served as a domestic economy training facility operated by the Mercy Sisters. Together with numerous estate buildings it is still extant though not currently in use. |
|
| Drombaun House | In 1837 Lewis referred to Drombawn as the seat of Peyton Johnson. At the time of Griffith’s Valuaton in the 1850s, the property was leased from the Fetherston estate by Henry Dobson and valued over £5. It is recorded as “in ruins” on the 25-inch Ordnance Survey map of the early twentieth century and the site is now occupied by farm buildings. | |
| 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. | |
| Tennalick House | Tennalick House was associated with the nearby mill complex. At the time of Griffiths Valuation, it was leased by Stephen Cullen to Robert Diamond and was valued at £10. The mill complex was leased by John McCann & Co. also from Stephen Cullen and valued at £130. The Valuation Office House Books indicate that the house occupied by Robert Diamond was valued at £12 in 1840, while the mills, then held by William McCann, were valued at £62. The National Built Heritage Service suggests that the now-ruinous house at Tennalick dates from the early 18th century and may incorporate the remains of a 17th century house. It associates the site with the O’Farrell and Sankey families and later with the Gore estate, 1st Barons Annaly, before its acquisition by the White family, third Barons Annaly, in the early 19th century. Both the house and mills at Tennalick are now ruinous. |
|
| Colehill (Longford) | The Ordnance Survey Name Books noted that Colonel White was the proprietor of the townland of Colehill. The house of the same name was leased by a Mrs. Power to Captain Robert N. Bolton at the time of Griffiths Valuation in the 1850s, when it was valued at almost £18. The Valuation Office House books of the 1840s record Thomas Lennon as the occupier at that time. The National Built Heritage Service dates the original part of this house to the 1760s with later additions in the mid 19th century. It indicates that the house was associated with the Nugent family. It is still extant and occupied. |
|
| Castlewilder [Cloghdoo House] | Richard P. O’Reilly, MD, held this property in fee at the time of Griffiths Valuation in the early 1850s, when it was valued at £30. On the 1st edition Ordnance Survey map it is labelled Cloghdoo House but as Castlewilder on the 25-inch edition of the early 20th century. The Ordnance Survey Name Books note that the townland at that time (1835) was the property of Mr. Wilder. In 1814 Leet referred to 'Castlewilden' as the seat of John Mangan. The National Built Heritage Service suggests the house and its complex of estate buildings was built in the 18th century but modified in the 1880s. |

The Ordnance Survey Name Books mention that the demesne contained 38 acres of woodland in the mid-1830s. Leet referred to it as the residence of Richard Fox in 1814.

| Newtown House [Newtown Lodge] | Robert Hagerty was leasing this property from the Fox estate at the time of Griffiths Valuation in the early 1850s.

|
| Tully (Granard) | A steward’s house owned by Willougby Bond was located at Tully and valued at £15 at the time of Griffiths Valuation in the 1850s. The National Inventory of Architectural Heritage suggests this site had a long history dating back to an O'Farrell castle in the 17th century and later occupied by Newcomen and Wilson families before becoming part of the Bond estate. The Ordnance Survey Name Books mention that it was part of Major Bond's demesne with 'much old timber about the place'. Buildings still exist at this site. | |
| 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.

Elizabeth Westby was the wife of William Westby and the daughter of George B. Whitney of Newpass. The house was unoccupied in the early 1850s and valued at £35. The National Inventory of Architectural Heritage suggests it was built c.1775 by the Whitney family, probably on the site of an earlier house. Taylor and Skinner noted it as a Whitney property in 1777. O'Brien states that Colonel Whitney first purchased the Newpass estate in 1670. In 1906 it was owned by Major E. Henry Fetherston Whitney and valued at £43. It is still extant. The estate also owned property in the nearby village of Rathowen. |
