The estate included lands in the counties of Mayo and Galway, some quite widely dispersed but mostly around the town of Cong, as well as fisheries and ‘impropriate’ tithes (that is, tithes enjoyed by lay owners rather than the clergy). The lands were reckoned to comprise 2,502 acres in 1698 and 7,770 acres in 1852. The earlier figure is doubtless Irish acres and probably excludes unprofitable lands; the latter is statute acres and includes all lands. Rents of £188 and tithes of £176 were remitted to the landlord in 1701; total rents and tithes were reckoned at about £1,000 a year in the early 1720s, only half of which was remitted to London. The estate was sold for £9,816 in 1756.
