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.
Newtown Kilcolgan	Arthur St.George was leasing a house, valued at £8, at Newtown Kilcolgan, from Christopher St.George in 1855. Evidence of estate buildings still survive in this area though the house appears to be gone.
Lavally	Wilson refes to Lavally as the seat of Mr. Lynch in 1786. In 1837 Lavally is recorded by Lewis as the seat of T. Lynch. It was still occupied by him at the time of Griffith's Valuation in 1856 when it was valued at £20. By 1906 Delia Mullin is recorded as the owner. Lavally House is still extant and undergoing renovation.
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.
Rockhill House	The earlier house at Rockhill was the residence of Daniel Higgins in 1814. At the time of Griffith's Valuation, it was occupied by Dominick D'Arcy and was valued at £9. A new house appears to have been built in the latter half of the nineteenth century and, in the 1870s, it was the seat of Lionel D'Arcy. Rockhill is stil extand and well-maintained.
