Belview House	Arthur Mahony was leasing a property valued at almost £4 from the Kenmare estate at the time of Griffith’s Valuation. In 1906 it was part of the Kenmare estate and valued at £5 5s. Bary states that this house, very close to the lake shore, was built by James Mahony, of the Dunloe Castle family, in the latter half of the 18th century. In the 1930s, it was still part of the Kenmare estate and Lord Castlerosse supervised the building of Killarney Golf Club here. The original house was demolished to make room for a new clubhouse.
Belview/Bellevue	A home of the Yielding family, occupied by Richard M. Yielding in 1814 and 1837 and by Timothy Hartigan who held the property from James Barry at the time of Griffith's Valuation. The buildings were valued at £13 at that time. Bought by the Delmeges in the early 1850s. The original house is not extant.
Belville	O’Brien writes that Belville was built about 1775 for Richard Cuppaidge and by the early 1780s was occupied by the Jones family. It remained the Jones family home until at least the time of Griffith’s Valuation (publ. 1854) when Gustavus Jones Junior was resident. The house was valued at £23. It is now a ruin.
Belville	An Orme home in the first half of the 19th century. Described in 1942 by the Irish Tourist Association surveyor as a large house near the church at Ballyglass, formerly owned by the Orme family and "purchased some years ago by Mr MacDonald, Kilfian. It has remained unoccupied...", due to a popular belief among the local people that the house was haunted. It is no longer extant.
Belville (Banagh)	John Bustard held this property in fee at the time of Griffith’s Valuation, when it was valued at £13. It continued to be associated with the Bustard family throughout the nineteenth century.

In 1906 the property here owned by George Bustard was valued at £13. It is still extant.
Belville (Iveragh)	James Butler was occupying this property at the time of Griffith's Valuation, when it was valued at £9 15s. Both Lewis, in 1837, and Leet, in 1814, record it as the seat of Whitwell Butler. Bary states that it was probably built by Whitwell Butler in the late eighteenth century. In 1906 the property was owned by Arabella Butler and was valued at £8 5s. It continued to be used by the family until the end of the twentieth century but is now unoccupied and in poor repair.
Belville (Kilmacshalgan)	According to McTernan, Belville was built by Peter Rutledge on the occasion of his marriage to Catherine Ormsby in 1808. The house was occupied in the 1830s by James Rutledge. At the time of Griffith's Valuation, it was occupied by Margaret Ormsby Ruttledge, leasing from the Cooper estate and was valued at almost £4. By 1876 it was the seat of Robert McMunn who owned 582 acres in county Sligo. It was partly demolished in the twentieth century.

Belvoir	Belvoir was an early 19th century house on the same site as an earlier building. It was the home of the Wilson family, valued at £32 in the mid 19th century. The house was burnt in 1888 when leased by the Wilson Lynches to Lady Loftus. It was not rebuilt though recorded as the seat of Maj. Wilson Lynch in 1894. Members of the Wilson Lynch family continued to live in the remaining wing until the mid 20th century. It is now a ruin.
Belvoir (Sligo)
Belvoir (Sligo)	Wilson refers to Belvoir, situated on the other side of the Garavogue river from Hazelwood, as the seat of Mr. Ormsby in 1786. By the time of Griffith's Valuation, the property here is held by John Wynne and referred to as "a servant's house", valued at £2 15s. Buildings are still extant at the site.
Benada	The Jones had a house here in the eighteenth century as Wilson refers to Banada as the seat of Mr. Jones in 1786. It was held in fee by Rev. Daniel Jones at the time of Griffith's Valuation when it was valued at £17. In 1858 it was transferred to the Sisters of Charity who ran a girls' school and orphanage there. In the twentieth century it became a secondary school and continued in that role until 2004 when it was sold to a private developer.
Benison Lodge	Benison Lodge, west of Lough Lene, is named on both the first edition six inch and 25 inch OS maps. O’Brien describes it as a late 18th century, five-bay, two-storey house, probably by the O’Reilly family, one of whom was shot dead in the house in 1803 by the coachman. In 1814 Thomas H Smyth lived here and the Rev T Smyth in 1837. By the time of Griffith’s Valuation (publ. 1854) John Henry Roper was occupying the house, valued at £30 and held from William P Urquhart of Castlepollard. In the 1870s Henry J Roper of Benison Lodge owned 447 acres. In the early 20th century Richard O’Neill and family were living in a first class house in this townland. The house is now a ruin.
Benlevy Lodge	A lodge situated close to the shore of Lough Mask and to the Lynch's house at Petersburg. Ocuppied by J. Blake in 1837 and by the Reverend E.G.O'Grady at the time of Griffith's Valuation. The remains of the lodge are still visible.
Benmore	In 1778 this was a Daly property and in 1786, Wilson also refers to it as the seat of Mr. Daly. In 1824 Mr. O'Connor was listed as a non-resident proprietor in county Galway. The OS Name Books record the proprietor of Benmore as Hugh O'Connor with a Mr. Dowdall acting as his agent in the 1830s. In 1855 Valentine O'Connor Blake was leasing 584 acres and buildings valued at £8 in the townland of Benmore, parish of Grange, barony of Loughrea, to Denis Deely. The original house does not appear to be extant.
