House name	Description
Gore Port [Derrymacegan]	In the 1850s Captain Alexander Walker was leasing this property from the Gore estate when it was valued at £15. It is labelled Derrymacegan on the 1st edition OS map but as Gore Port on subsequent editions. The National Inventory of Architectural Heritage suggests the earlier part of the property dates from the mid 18th century and the later part from the early 19th century. O'Brien suggests that it was Captain Walker who built the later building, c.1835. Sir Samuel Walker, Lord Chancellor of Ireland, 1892-95, was born at Gort Port in 1832. The house is still extant.
Annis Grove	This property was valued at almost £10 at the time of Griffiths Valuation in the early 1850s when it was leased by Patrick Lynch from the Gore estate. O'Brien states that it was occupied by the Lynch family from at least the early nineteenth until the last quarter of the twentieth century. He indicates that it was originally known as Money, from the townland in which it is situated. It is now a ruin.
Tullystown	At the time of Griffiths Valuation in the early 1850s James McCullagh was leasing this property from the Duke of Buckingham’s estate when it was valued at £11. It was still in the McCullough family in 1906 with the same valuation. O'Brien records that Tullystown was damaged by fire in 2013 and gives an account of the various buildings that have existed at this site.
Carlanstown	At the time of Griffiths Valuation Wiilliam McCullogh was leasing this property from the Duke of Buckingham’s estate when it was valued at £13. It is located close to the site of Carlanstown Castle and labelled Carlanstown House on the 25-inch Ordnance survey map. O'Brien suggests it was built c,1830. Both he and the National Inventory of Architectural Heritage provide extensive details of its associations with older structures at the site and the connections with the Nugent family. Carlanstown is still extant and occupied.
Lickbla House [ Rockbrook](Fore)	Thomas Fagan was leasing this property from James Fallon at the time of Griffiths Valuation in the early 1850s when it was valued at almost £19 and included a mill. In 1906 it was the property of Patrick J. Fagan and valued at almost £21. The National Inventory of Architectural Heritage suggests that it dates from c.1800 but with later modifications. It is labelled Rockbrook on the 1st edition OS map but as Lickbla House on later editions and is still extant and occupied.
Newcastle (Fore)	Walter Keating was occupying Newcastle at the time of Griffiths Valuation in the early 1850s when it was leased from the Urquhart estate and valued at £19. In 1839 the Valuation Office Books indicate that George Keating was the occupier with a valuation of £23. It is still extant.
