House name	Description
Ballynamanagh	At the time of Griffith's Valuation, Thomas Redington was leasing a house valued at £4 at Ballynamanagh, barony of Dunkellin, to John Caven. It was accompanied by almost 100 acres. Kelly noted that it had been the property of Mr.Burke of Carheen for over 100 years but was later in the possession of the Redington estate. This house is still extant and occupied.
Tyrone	Tyrone was built in the early 19th century. It is described in the OS Name Books as "a beautiful residence" in the 1830s. At the time of Griffith's Valuation, it was in the possession of Christopher St.George and was valued at £50. In 1894 Slater notes it as the seat of Robert J.K. St.George. The family ceased to live there in the early twentieth century. Its ruins can be seen overlooking the estuary of the Clarin river.
Kilcolgan Castle	Christopher St. George, residing at Kilcolgan Castle, is described as a resident proprietor in county Galway in 1824. In the 1830s Kilcolgan Castle is described as the property of A.F. St. George. This house, part of the St.George estate, was leased by Matthew St.George from Christopher St.George, 1855. At that time Matthew St. George was acting as agent for the Rathbourne estate. Earlier, the Ordnance Survey Field Name books record that he was acting as agent for the estate of Patrick French in the nearby parish of Ballynacourty. In 1894 Slater refers to "Kilcolgan House" as the residence of James St. George.
Kilcornan	In 1814 Kilcornan House was the residence of T. & C. Redington. Later, in 1837, Lewis recorded it as the seat of T. Redington. At the time of Griffith's Valuation Thomas Redington was the owner of the property, then valued at £100. In 1894 Slater referred to it as the residence of C.T. Redington. In 1906 it was the property of Anne Redington. Kilcornan House is still standing and now forms part of the Brothers of Charity services complex located in the grounds.
Cloghballymore	Originally a tower house owned by the Kilkelly family, Cloghballymore House, was extended a number of times by the various families who held the estate over three centuries.. The National Inventory of Architectural Heritage indicates that the main house at the site was constructed by Marcus Lynch in the eighteenth century. In 1906 it was owned by Llewellyn Blake and was valued at £18. It was later given by him to a missionary order and maintained for some time as a seminary. The building is still extant and now used as St. Columba's nursing home.
Stradbally	Griffith's Valuation shows that Christopher St.George had what are described as "offices" valued at £16 in the townland of Stradbally West, parish of Stradbally, barony of Dunkellin. This was the stable complex for Tyrone House and adjacent to the walled garden which was part of the estate.
