Rockspring In 1837 Lewis referred to Rockspring House as the seat of W. Coates. He was still the occupier recorded in the Valuation Office books in 1840, when the house was valued at almost £9. By the time of Griffith Valuation in the early 1850s the property was being leased by James O’Keeffe from John Cooke. A house is still extant at the site.
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. Photo of Williamstown House (Longford)
