| House name | Description | |
|---|---|---|
| Old Rock | At the time of Griffith's Valuation John Trumble was leasing a property valued at £4 at Old Rock, barony of Corran, from Johnston Parke. McTernan states that John Trumble eventually disposed of his interest in this property and settled in Manchester. The original house is no longer extant. | |
| Greyfort | Alexander Perceval was the lessor of a property valued at almost £6 at Lislea, barony of Corran, which he was leasing to James Dale at the time of Griffith's Valuation. McTernan notes the house as the seat of the Rea family from the mid-seventeenth to the mid-nineteenth centuries. A number of other families occupied the house up until the 1980s when it was demolished. | |
| Drimrane | At the time of Griffith's Valuation John Taaffe was leasing a property at Drimraine, barony of Corran, valued at £6 to John Davis. It was in use as a herd's house accompanying a holding of over 100 acres. McTernan states that Davies subsequently sold the property to the Reynolds family in whose possession it still remains. | |
| Carrowkeel | At the time of Griffith's Valuation John F. MacDonagh held property valued at £12 at Carrowkeel, barony of Corran, from the Gore Booth estate. Lewis also records this as a MacDonagh property, describing it as a "fine modern residence". McTernan notes that Carrowkeel was probably built by Francis MacDonagh at the beginning of the nineteenth century. It remained in the family until its sale in the Landed Estates Court. It is still extant and occupied. | |
| Clooncunny | At the time of Griffith's Valuation Thomas Rice was leasing a property valued at £5 together with over 150 acres at Clooncunny, barony of Leyny, from the Kirkwood estate. Lewis records Thomas Rice's seat as Achonry in 1837. A house and farm are still extant at this location. | |
| Somerton | Somerton House appears to have been the residence of the agent to the Perceval estate. At the time of Griffith's Valuation the latter estate was owned by R.W. Hall-Dare. Somerton was then occupied by Christopher L'Estrange and was valued at £14. It is still extant. |

| Derroon House | Derroon House is recorded on the 1st edition OS map. At the time of Griffith's Valuation, Capt. Richard Gethin was leasing a property at Derroon from the Gore-Booth estate valued at almost £3. | |
| Thornhill (Ballinacarrow) | At the time of Griffith's Valuation, Charles Gilbert was leasing a house and bleach mill at Ballinacarrow North, from the Hall Dare (earlier and later the Perceval) Estate. The combined valuation of the buildings was over £21. McTernan states that this is Thornhill House and mills. The mills had ceased to operate in the early twentieth century but the house is still extant. |
