House name Description
Oghil Oghil house is recorded in the OS Name Books as being built in the 1740s, though McTernan states that the existing house dates from the late 1830s. At both the time of Griffith's Valuation and in 1906 it was the property of Robert W. Armstrong and was valued at £17. It later served as the parochial house but is now a family home again.

Kinard Lodge The Ordnance Survey Name Books record Kinnard Lodge as the property of the Paget family in 1837. It appears that it, like other houses in the area, was used as a summer bathing lodge. At the time of Griffith's Valuation, it was occupied by James Paget and was valued at £9. A second house in the townland was occupied by Henry Simpson, leasing from James Paget, and was valued at £6. Kinard Lodge is still extant and occupied.
Cooga Lodge The house at Cooga was valued at £26 in 1906 and was the property of John Howley.At the time of Griffith's Valuation Patrick Howley had a steward's house here, valued at £4, together with 300 acres. [Grid Reference is approximate]. Local folklore suggests it afterwards became the residence of the local priest. Photo of Cooga Lodge
Seaville or Seaview House At the time of Griffith's Valuation James Kerr was leasing a house valued at £12 at Carrownurlaur from the Wingfield estate. It is labelled Seaville House on the First Edition Ordnance Survey map but as Seaview House on the later 25-inch edition of hte 1890s. Portion of the original building remains.
Orme's Lodge Robert Orme was the owner of several properties in the village of Enniscrone, Carrowhubbuck South, barony of Tireragh, at the time of Griffith's Valuation. These properties had valuations of between £12 and £20. McTernan notes that one of these was Orme's Lodge which remained in the family until the 1930s. It subsequently became a hotel and was demolished in the 1990s to make way for new house building. Photo of Orme's Lodge
