| 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.

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. | |

| Belmore Place | At the time of Griffiths Valuation in the early 1850s this property was held in fee by Robert W. Lowry, when it was valued at £16. It is labelled Belmore Place on all editions of the Ordnance Survey maps. O'Brien writes that the original house at this site had been occupied by Netterville Blake, who sold the property to Lowry in 1832. The National Inventory of Architectural Heritage suggests the surviving farm complex was built c.1850. The house was demolished in the 20th century. |

| Ballymore Parochial House | Thomas Coffey was leasing this property to Reverend Thomas Guinan at the time of Griffiths Valuation when it was valued at £12. A smaller house appears at this location on the 1st edition map of 1838 but a house labelled “Parochial House” is shown on the early 20th century 25-inch edition. Buildings still extant at site but may not be original. | |
| Lissanode House | O'Brien writes that this house was occupied by the Russell family, probably from the early part of the eighteenth century. At the time of Griffiths Valuation, in 1854, it was occupied by Frederick W. Russell, leasing from the Boyd estate, when it had a valuation of £7. It was replaced by a more substantial house in the late nineteenth century following a fire. It is still extant. | |
| 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. | |
| Jones Lake | A house south of the railway line and a short distance west of Moate in the mid-19th century. O'Brien writes that it was built by the Jones family in the mid-18th century as a two storey, three bay building. Leet records William Gustavus Jones as resident in 1814. Occupied by John Sills at the time of Griffith's Valuation (publ. 1854) and held from Patrick Dillon Irwin with about 50 acres, when it was valued at £13. |
