command to list ownership of folder

[Claude Jones]

forgive me for I have trespassed, but I have also read and read
I changed ownership on a bunch of folders in the /var/lock directory by 
mistake -- from what I've read, there is no undo -
I would like to put these back the way they were. I'm not sure if they 
were all root:root
I have an exactly configured box I can ssh into and get the list of 
owners, but I can't find the command that lists ownership of a folder - 
is there such?
