The Westmeath Independent reported the castle’s purchase by a family from California in January 2021.
Annagh	Annagh was a Dillon home as probably were Glenmore and Lakeview houses also in this townland. There is a building still at the Glenmore site but the other two houses are gone. O’Brien writes that an early 19th century house was built in front of an earlier house and that Dillons lived here from at least the mid-18th century. In 1814 and 1837 Christopher R Dillon was resident and Mary Ann Dillon in the mid-19th century when the house was valued at £10 and held from Lord Ashtown of Woodlawn, County Galway. In the latter part of the 20th century the house was abandoned and is now derelict.
Auburn	Auburn - Detached five-bay two-storey over raised basement house, built or rebuilt in the early 19th century (boi) This house takes its name from the Goldsmith Poem ‘The Deserted Village’, which was apparently inspired by the countryside surrounding this property where Goldsmith grew up as a boy. Auburn House was reputedly remodeled in the early nineteenth-century by John Hogan, whose father, a solicitor, acquired the property and estate from the Naper Family (of Loughcrew, Oldcastle, Co. Meath) in settlement of legal costs. J Hogan was the occupant in 1837. It was later sold to William Henry Daniel c.1848 and later to G.A.G. Adamson in 1864.

Rossana House	Rossana House is named on the first edition OS map. It was built in the early 19th century but is not mentioned in Leet (1814).

By the time of Griffith’s Valuation Elizabeth Murray (nee Rushworth), widow of Major General James P Murray of Killinure House, was resident holding the property valued at £16.5 from Anne Stubbs who held the 30 acre townland from the King-Harmans. Members of the Murray family appear to have occupied the house during the rest of the 19th century. John and Ethel Hall were resident in 1901. Sold to the Sisters and Disciples of the Divine Master in the mid-1960s and demolished circa 1990 according to the list of Protected Structure for the county.

Waterstown House	This Palladian style country house on rectangular plan, constructed c.1745 was designed by the German architect Richard Castle (1695-1751) for Gustavus Handcock and his wife Elizabeth Temple. It has important historical connections with the Temple-Handcock family, who were originally granted the lands around Waterstown as payment for services to the Crown during the Cromwellian Wars (boi). Robert Handcock Temple was resident in 1814 and 1837. Valued at £47 in the mid-19th century it was occupied by Robert Holmes. The buildings had increased in value to £61.15 in 1906.

Ballaghkeeran House	Ballaghkeeran House marked on the 25 inch OS map but not on the earlier first edition map. This ‘mansion’ house was erected in the 1860s according to a Murtagh sale rental of 8 December 1876 which states that the sale included “a fine residence, erected within the last ten years, regardless of expense, built on an eminence affording commanding views of lake scenery … and approached from the public road by a handsome carriage drive, with ornamental iron gates and lodge at entrance’. Mrs Murtagh was the occupant at this time holding the house and nine acres as a tenant under the Court of Chancery. Members of the Murtagh family were still living in the house in 1901 and 1911. This house appears to be the residence of a farming enterprise.
Coolvuck House	O’Brien writes that this early 19th century house was probably built by Francis Dillon, who was recorded as the occupant in 1814. Valued at £13 at the time of Griffith’s Valuation (publ. 1854), it was occupied by Eneas McDonnell who held the property from James George Murphy. Occupied by Thomas Groarke, a farmer and his sister in 1901 and by Thomas Killoughy, a shepherd who held it from Thomas Groarke in 1911.

A four-bay two-storey house, built about 1864 by William Potts of nearby Old Court. There is a plaque of the Longwood Family over the crenellated extension. Owned by the Potts into the 20th century and by the Heaton family since the 1950s.
Creaghduff House	A building is marked at the site of Creaghduff House on the first edition OS map but the present house appears to have been built after this date. Gearoid O’Brien refers to Charles Handcock building the house at the time of Griffith’s Valuation (https://www.westmeathindependent.ie/2023/02/03/street-wise-coosan/). Valued at £17 as recorded in Griffith’s Valuation the house was occupied by the Hon Charles Handcock and held from Lord Castlemaine. It is located at the south west corner of Coosan Lough.

Rathcline House	St. George Johnston was leasing this property from Colonel Henry White’s estate at the time of Griffiths Valuation in the early 1850s when it was valued at almost £38. Earlier, in 1837, Lewis referred to it as the seat of L. White. The National Built Heritage Service suggests the current house was built c.1820 though there is evidence to suggest there was an earlier house, also owned by the White family, at the site in the 1770s. Rathcline House served as a convent for the Sisters of Mercy in the mid-20th. It is still extant.
Cloonta	Nicholas McGaver held this property in fee at the time of Griffiths Valuation in the 1850s, when it was valued at almost £12.

Doory Hall	Doory Hall was the residence of F.T. Jessop at the time of Griffiths Valuation in the 1850s, when it was valued at £50.

In 1837 Lewis referred to it as the seat of the Dowager Countess of Ross. At the time of Griffiths Valuation in the 1850s it was the seat of Laurence King-Harman and was valued at £90. In 1906 it was owned by Col. W.H. King-Harman. It remained in the family until the twentieth century when it was sold to an order of religious sisters. In the later 20th century and again more recently it has functioned as a hotel. A Center Parcs resort is now located in an area of the former demesne.
Cartron House (Ballymahon)	At the time of Griffiths Valuation in the 1850s, Thomas Wright was leasing this property from the King Harman estate when it was valued at £10. In 1837 it was noted by Lewis as the seat of J. Wright. It is still extant.
Rathmore House (Ballymahon)	Robert C. Barbar was occupying this property, then valued at over £12, at the time of Griffiths Valuation. Lewis had also noted it as his seat in 1837. It was leased from the King Harman estate. This property was labelled Rathmore House on the 1st edition Ordnance Survey map but a later house (Grid Reference N150546) carries this label on the 25-inch edition of the early twentieth century. The latter is still extant.
Castlecore/Castlecor House (Ballymahon)	The National Built Heritage Service suggests that the original building at Castlecore was built as a hunting lodge in the mid 18th century by a member of the Harman family from Newcastle House. It underwent several changes and additions during the 19th century. Between the 1830s and the 1850s it was in the hands of Thomas Hussey and at the time of Griffiths Valuation, it was valued at £10. Hussey advertised it for sale in the Encumbered Estates Court in 1855, when it was described as 'of a peculiarly convenient construction, built about 50 years at a cost of £4000'. The 'Freeman's Journal' reported that it was sold for over £6000. By the 1870s it was the seat of John Bond. In 1906 Castlecore was owned by Emily C. Clarke and valued at £44 10s. It is named as Castlecor House on the 1st edition Ordnance Survey map but as Castlecore House on the later 25-inch edition. It is still extant.
Drumnacor House	At the time of Griffiths Valuation in the 1850s, John Bond held this property in fee when it was valued at £15. In 1837 Lewis had recorded Drumnacor as the residence of W. Sandys. In 1906 it was owned by John Bond’s representatives. The site is now occupied by a farmyard.
Grillagh House	Edward Trelford was leasing a house and associated mill from Henry Montford Bond at Grillagh, in the parish of Killashee at the time of Griffiths Valuation, when it was valued at £10. The property is labelled Grillagh House on the 25-inch Ordnance Survey map of the early 20th century. The mill buildings, though derelict, are still extant.
Ardnagragh	Alicia Nugent was leasing this property, which included a mill, from the Digby estate at the time of Griffiths Valuation in the early 1850s, when it was valued at £23. The National Inventory of Architectural Heritage indicates that the house is still in use though the mill has been demolished.
Dorrington House	At the time of Griffiths Valuation St. George Gray held this property in fee when it was valued at £32. It is labelled Dorrington House on all editions of the Ordnance Survey maps. In 1906 it was the property of Wellington Gray and valued at £44. O'Brien writes that the house was demolished during the twentieth century and a newer house constructed at the site but extensive estate architecture survives.
Littletown House [Lodge]	William Magill was leasing this property from Joseph Manly at the time of Griffiths Valuation in the early 1850s when it was valued at almost £14. On the 1st edition Ordnance Survey map it appears to be located within the townland of Doonis but on the 25-inch edition of the early 20th century it seems to be within the townland of Cartroncroy. The house is labelled Littletown Lodge on the 1st edition map but as Littletown House on the 25-inch edition. It survived into the twentieth century but is no longer extant. In 1837 Lewis referred to Littleton Lodge as the seat of W. Lennox Napier. Another Littletown House is shown on the 1st edition Ordnance Survey map in the adjacent townland of Littletown [N096519] but this is described as 'in ruins' on the later map. William Magill of Littleton, Ballymahon was recorded as the owner of over 350 acres in County Longford in the 1870s.
Kilcornan Lodge (Ballymahon)	Thomas Murray was leasing this property from Charles Edward Grogan at the time of Griffiths Valuation in the early 1850s, when it was valued at almost £14. In 1814 Leet referred to Kilcornan as the residence of Patrick McDermott. O'Brien details the various occupiers from 1785, the year from which he asserts the house dates. It is still extant.
Annaville House	Francis Longworth was leasing this property from William Dawson at the time of Griffiths Valuation in the early 1850s, when it was valued at almost £14 and included a mill. On the 25-inch Ordnance Survey map of the early 20th century it is labelled Annaville House. A house is still extant at the site.
Noughaval House (Ballymahon)	William Dawson was leasing this property from the King-Harman estate at the time of Griffiths Valuation in the early 1850s when it was valued at £13. Lewis also referred to it as his seat in 1837. The National Inventory of Architectural Heritage suggests it was built in 1760. O'Brien notes that there is a family tradition that the roof had to be replaced in the nineteenth century having been damaged during ''the Night of the Big Wind'' in 1839. Noughaval is still extant and occupied.
Lissaquill House	In 1837 Lewis referred to Lissaquill House as the seat of Harding Fetherstone. At the time of Griffiths Valuation in 1854 this property was occupied by John Hogan, leasing from O'Brien Dillons, when it was valued at £9. The Valuation Office Books of 1841 noted the house here as having a valuation of £10 and occupied by Harding Fetherstone. A house and farm are still extant at this location.
