House name	Description
Monivea	An O'Kelly tower house, acquired by the ffrenches in the early 17th century, who made additions in the 18th century. Held in fee by Robert French at the time of Griffith's Valuation when it was valued at £40. In 1894 Slater refers to it as the seat of Acheson French. In 1938 it was bequeathed by Kathleen French to the State as a home for artists, subsequently demolished and now only the original tower remains. A mausoleum, modelled on the tower house and constructed at the end of the nineteenth century, is located in the adjacent woodland.
Abbert	In 1786, Wilson refers to Abbert as the seat of Mr. Blakeney. Occupied by David Watson Ruttledge at the time of Griffith's Valuation when the buildings were valued at £35. Slater refers to Abbert as the seat of John Blakeney in 1894. A new house has been built at the site but the ruins of the original outbuildings still exist.
Corrandoo House	This property was granted to the ffrenches in the late 17th century in lieu of Monivea Occupied by the Reverend Mr Marsh in the 1770s sand 1780s, by M. Dowdall in the 1830s and Thomas Kenny at the time of Griffith's Valuation when it was valued at £10. It is no longer extant.
Glennagloughaun North	A building valued at £12 was occupied by Digby French at the time of Griffith's Valuation, this may have been the old charter school marked on the first Ordnance Survey map.

Farmhill	Joseph Kelly was leasing a property valued at almost £10 from Charles Kelly at Farmhill, barony of Tiaquin, at the time of Griffith's Valuation. A house still exists at this site.
