| Kilmoyle | At the time of Griffiths Valuation in the early 1850s, Alexander McCormick was leasing this property from the estate of Captain W. Bond, when it was valued at £7. The 1906 Untenanted Demesnes survey records a valuation of almost £14 for the property when it was still part of the Bond estate. A modern house and large farm occupy the site now. | |
| Newpass | Griffiths Valuation notes the owners of Newpass as Elizabeth Westby and the representatives of Sir. G. Fetherson. Elizabeth Westby was the wife of William Westby and the daughter of George B. Whitney of Newpass. The house was unoccupied in the early 1850s and valued at £35. The National Inventory of Architectural Heritage suggests it was built c.1775 by the Whitney family, probably on the site of an earlier house. Taylor and Skinner noted it as a Whitney property in 1777. O'Brien states that Colonel Whitney first purchased the Newpass estate in 1670. In 1906 it was owned by Major E. Henry Fetherston Whitney and valued at £43. It is still extant. The estate also owned property in the nearby village of Rathowen. |

| Kildevin | Moses Sproule was leasing this property from William H. Little at the time of Griffiths Valuation in the early 1850s, when it was valued at £36. O'Brien states that a name plaque at the property indicates the building of the house by Robert Sproule in 1833. It was the residence of the Sproule family until the later part of the 19th century when it was acquired by Meredith Johnston and by the Tyndall family. It is still extant and has been offered for sale on a number of occasions since 2000. |

| Kilmore House (Moygoish) | At the time of Griffiths Valuation, Kilmore House was leased by Reverend Francis Kane from Reverend William Bowles and was valued at £10. The house is not visible on the 1st edition OS map but is labelled Kilmore House on the 25-inch edition. It is still extant and part of a farming enterprise. Reverend Francis Kane was afterwards rector of the parish of Fenagh, County Leitrim, from 1869 until his death in 1882. He had previously been vicar in the parish of Russagh, nearby to Street, County Westmeath, 1848-1855. | |
| Millbrook (Granard) | Patrick Flynn was leasing this house and milling complex from the Greville estate at the time of Griffiths Valuation in the early 1850s, when it was valued at over £13. | |
| Edgeworthstown House | The Edgeworth family had been settled at Edgeworthstown in the parish of Mostrim, County Longford, since the 17th century. At the time of Griffiths Valuation in the 1850s, Fanny Edgeworth was leasing the property from Charles Edgeworth, when it was valued at £45. [It is likely that Fanny was his stepmother} The National Built Heritage Service suggests the present building began in 1725 but had several rounds of modifications subsequently. In more recent years it has served as a health care facility. |
