Description Glenomera was the seat of the Arthur family from the mid 17th century until the early 20th century. In 1786, Wilson refers to Ballyquin as "the fine seat of Mr. Arthur". It is labelled Ballyquin House on the 1st edtion Ordnance Survey map but as Glenomera on the later 25-inch edition. Lewis wrote in 1837 that Glenomera was "celebrated as a shooting station for grouse and pheasant". It was held in fee by Thomas Arthur at the time of Griffith's Valuation and valued at £35. The house is now demolished.
