Bence Jones states that it was named in honour of Anne LePoer, wife of Arthur Bernard, who built the house in 1714. The house became dilapidated after the sale in the mid-nineteenth century and much of it has been demolished though one wing still survives.

It is recorded in Lewis under Portumna town. In 1865 it was occupied by Lewis Goodbody who had purchased it in the Landed Estates Court in 1861. The sale notice refers to the house as "Pokoroko" and this title appears again in the Cunningham sale report of June 1886.

In 1786 Wilson refers to it as "Paradise, the delightful seat of Mr. Henn, finely situated on the side of a high hill". It was altered in the 19th century. Many members of the Henn family were involved in the legal profession and lived in Dublin so the family did not inhabit the house much until the second half of the 19th century. In 1814 John Scott was residing in the house and Thomas Arthur in 1837. In the mid 1850s the house was unoccupied and Augustus Arthur was the immediate lessor. It was valued at over £17.
