House name	Description
Newtown House (Fore)	This house was enlarged after the publication of the 1st edition Ordnance Survey map in the 1830s. Elizabeth Ferrally was leasing the property from the Pakenham estate at the time of Griffiths Valuation in the early 1850s when it was valued at £9. The Valuation Office books of 1838 also noted her as the owner when the house had a valuation of almost £6. A house is still extant at the site.
Tullynally Castle	The National Built Heritage Service suggests the bulk of Tullynally Castle was built c.1730 but may incorporate the fabric of a house built for Henry Pakenham in the mid-C17. It had a number of phases of construction throughout its long history. Formerly known as Pakenham Hall, it has been the seat of the Pakenham family for over 350 years. At the time of Griffiths Valuation in the mid-1850s it was valued at £200 and had the same valuation in 1906. It is still extant and occupied by the Pakenham family.
Tromra House	Tromra was being leased by Wiilliam Riggs from the Pakenham estate at the time of Griffiths Valuation in the early 1850s when it was valued at £13. The Valuation Office Books of 1839 indicate Mrs. Mary Anne Riggs was occupying a property valued at £10 at that time. Tromra is still extant and occupied.
Kinturk House	Kinturk House, located just south of Castlepollard, is a five-bay three-storey over basement country house, built about 1760, remodelled and extended in 1821 for William Dutton Pollard (1789-1839) by Charles Robert Cockerell (1788-1863). It was valued at £90 in 1906. The house remained in the possession of the Pollard/Pollard Urquhart family until the mid-1930s when it was sold to the Congregation of the Sacred Hearts of Jesus and Mary who, in turn, sold it on to the Midland Health Board in 1971.
Hilltown	Hilltown House, built in front of the ruins of a castle, is a three-bay three-storey over basement Palladian country house, built about 1780, possibly by William Webb. It was the home of William Webb in 1814 and in 1837. Valued at £26 at the time of Griffith’s Valuation (publ. 1854) it was occupied by George Webb and held from Lady Oranmore [and Browne]. Members of the Webb family were still resident in the early 20th century and O’Brien writes that the estate was acquired by the Land Commission. The house is still a private residence.
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.
Gaulstown House (Fore)	The National Inventory of Architectural Heritage suggests this house was built about 1730. At the time of Griffiths Valuation it was occupied by Andrew Mulligan, leasing from Hubert de Burgh’s estate, when it was valued at £21. It had previously been the seat of the Lill family who had succeeded to de Burgh property and adopted that surname. The house is labelled Gaulstown on the 25-inch Ordnance Survey map. It is still extant.
Castletown Cottage	At the time of Griffiths Valuation this property was held in fee by Samuel Reynell when it was valued at almost £8. O'Brien suggests that the original property was built c.1840. The National Inventory of Architectural Heritage indicates it was extended in the mid C19. The Valuation Office books of 1841 noted a house valued at almost £7 in this townland, then occupied by James Campbell. The house is labelled Castletown Cottage on the 25-inch edition OS map of the early C20. It is still extant and in use.
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.
Turbotstown [Turbotstown House]	The National Inventory of Architectural Heritage suggests that the present house at Turbotstown was built in the early decades of the nineteenth century, on the site of an earlier house. At the time of Griffiths Valuation in the early 1850s it was held in fee by Gerald Dease when the buildings were valued at £80. In 1906 it was still the property of Major Gerald Dease and valued at £84. It was occupied by the Dease family until the 20th century and is still extant. O'Brien provides a detailed account of this house and its occupants. On the 1st edition Ordnance Survey map it is labelled Turbotstown House but on the 25-inch edition of the early 20th century it is labelled Turbotston.
Lakeview House (Fore)	John Smith was leasing this property from Reverend Thomas Smith at the time of Griffiths Valuation when it was valued at £15. The Valuation Office books of 1838 state that the house then held by Reverend Thomas Smith was valued at £16. It is still extant and in use.
Mayne Glebe [Mayne Rectory]	Mayne Rectory was leased by Reverend William Eames from the estate of Reverend Thomas Smith at the time of Griffiths Valuation when it was valued at £8. In 1839, the Valuation Office books recorded that it was occupied by Reverend Richard Handy and had a valuation of almost £9. The National Inventory of Architectural Heritage suggests it was built c.1812. It is still extant and in use.
