House name	Description
Coolavin	McParlan described the Coolavin of 1802 as a "delightful retreat". The house at Clogher was offered for sale as part of the McDermott estate in 1852. By the time of Griffith's Valuation it was occupied by Joseph Holmes and was valued at £16. In 1906 Coolavin was valued at £35. The house now known as Coolavin was built in the 1890s replacing an earlier house near the same location. This latter house is still extant and occupied. The original house at Clogher is now derelict.
Redhill	At the time of Griffith's Valuation, William Baker was leasing a property valued at £14 at Mullaghroe, barony of Coolavin, from Viscount Lorton's estate. Lewis recorded Redhill as the seat of Andrew Baker in 1837. The house remained in the Baker family until 1912. It is still extant and occupied.
Cuilmore	At the time of Griffith's Valuation, James Powell was leasing a property valued at £7 with over 150 acres, from Lord de Freyne's estate, at Cuilmore, barony of Coolavin. The original house is not extant now.
Rathtermon	Taylor and Skinner indicate Rathtermon as a seat of the Fleming family in 1783. In 1837 Lewis records Rathtermon as the seat of J. Flanagan. At the time of Griffith's Valuation, Rev. John Flanagan was leasing a property valued at £10 together with over 200 acres at Rathtermon, barony of Coolavin, to Phillip McDermott. Rathtermon is still the focus of a large farming enterprise.
Castlemore	The main residence of the Costello family until the early 19th century. Occupied by the rector of the parish, Reverend Plunket, at the time of the first Ordnance Survey and by Thomas Strickland at the time of Griffith's Valuation, who held the property from Viscount Dillon. Only the farm buildings still remain which are now situated in county Roscommon.
Brooklawn	Occupied by James Taaffe in 1814. The residence of the Roman Catholic Bishop of Achonry in the mid 19th century. Still extant but not occupied. This house is now situated in county Roscommon.
Beechmount	Leased by John Cogan from Laurence Waldron at the time of Griffith's Valuation when it was valued at £5. Beechmount is still extant and occupied.
French Park	At the time of Griffith's Valuation Frenchpark was owned by Rev. John Ffrench, Lord de Freyne and was valued at £60. In the 1749 Census of Elphin it was the residence of Arthur and Lady French. In 1786 Wilson described it as "a most beautiful seat with extensive and noble demesnes". It was demolished in the twentieth century. Members of the French family were buried in the graveyard surrounding the ruins of Frenchpark Priory.
Kingsland	At the time of Griffith's Valuation John Conmee was leasing a property valued at £12 from Viscount Lorton's estate at Kingsland, barony of Frenchpark. He had been in possession of this property since at least 1814. Matthew Conmee also leased a property in the same townland, valued at £6 together with 190 acres, from Lord Lorton's estate.
Barnaboy	Francis O'Grady was leasing a property at Barnaboy, barony of Frenchpark, valued at £4 15s together with 179 acres of land from William Longfield's estate at the time of Griffith's Valuation. Farm buildings exist at the site now.
Ratra House & Stables	Lord de Freyne held a house valued at £4 10s at Ratra, barony of Frenchpark, at the time of Griffith's Valuation. In 1814 Ratra was the residence of Henry Irwin. A house, labelled Ratra, is shown on the 1st edition Ordnance Survey map. A larger building, on a different site, is labelled Ratra House on the later 25-inch edition [M684939]. Neither of these house are extant now. Offices, the property of Lord de Freyne's estate and valued at £7 10s, were located at Clashcarragh, barony of Frenchpark, at the time of Griffith's Valuation.
Sheepwalk	James McGann was leasing a property at Sheepwalk, barony of Frenchpark, valued at £10, from Lord de Freyne's estate at the time of Griffith's Valuation. The townland of Sheepwalk contains a fine collection of early to mid-twentieth century houses and associated farm buildings. One house, now derelict, appears to be earlier and has large associated outbuildings.
Mullen	In 1837 Lewis records a house named Mullen as the seat of Lynch Plunkett. The 1749 Census of Elphin records Mullen or Mullin, in the parish of Tibohine, barony of Frenchpark, as the residence of J. Barlow. The house, labelled Mullen, is shown on the 1st edition Ordnance Survey map but does not appear on the later 25-inch edition of the 1890s.
Rathkeery Glebe	Rev. William French was leasing a glebe house at Glebe East, barony of Frenchpark, from Lord de Freyne's estate at the time of Griffith's Valuation when it was valued at £7. The house no longer survives but an entrance gateway and trees indicate its whereabouts.
Kilfree	At the time of Griffith's Valuation Charles Costello was leasing a property valued at almost £7 together with 140 acres at Kilfree, barony of Coolavin, from the O'Farrell Caddell estate. Lewis records Kilfree as the seat of Edward Costello in 1837. Earlier, in 1802, McParlan mentioned "Mr. Costello of Gortin" as one of the principal residents of the area. McTernan states that the house and estate were eventually sold under the Land Acts. The ruins of the house are still visible.
Palmfield	At the time of Griffith's Valuation, Anne McDonnell was leasing a property valued at £3 at Calveagh Upper, parish of Kilbeagh, county Mayo from Viscount Dillon's estate. Lewis identifies Palmfield in the same parish as a residence of A. MacDonnell in 1837. Walls and estate architecture still identify the site which form part of a large farm. It is now located in county Roscommon.
Lung House	In 1786 Wilson refers to "Long" as the seat of Mr. Dillon. This appears to be Lung House, labelled as "in ruins" on the 1st edition Ordnance Survey map.
