    Broom House
    Broom house was built in the 1830s by John and Arthur Pollok of Pollok, Gilmour Ltd, a firm established by Allan Gilmour and the Pollok brothers in 1804.

    The partners first traded in timber with the Baltic, Scandinavia and Russia and later developed a thriving lumber industry in eastern Canada where, by the mid 1830s, they employed 5,000 men and were said to own over 130 ships, the largest fleet of wooden hulled ships in the world.

    The house is now used as a private school, Belmont House.

    Pollok (Lismany) - At the time of Griffith's Valuation Allan Pollok was the owner of considerable property in various parts of east county Galway. He was one of the principal lessors in the parishes of Donanaghta and Kilquain, barony of Longford as well as in Ahascragh, barony of Clonmacnowen. Pollok was originally from Scotland and had purchased extensive estates in county Galway in the Encumbered Estates Court in the early 1850s, including the two Burke estates of Glinsk and Creggs in the parishes of Ballynakill and Kilbegnet, barony of Ballymoe. A large portion of the Burke estate was sold to Allen Dowell in 1813 for ?30,000. Edmund Dowell sold his estate of 4,401 acres in 1851. It was purchased by Pollok who also bought portions of the West, St.George, Bisset, Eyre and Daly estates in the barony of Longford. Pollok's main residence was at Lismany, near Ballinasloe. In the 1870s he is recorded as holding over 29,000 acres in county Galway as well as a small amount of property in county Dublin. In 1881 he was succeeded by his son John, who married a daughter of John C. R. Bingham, 4th Lord Clanmorris. John's representatives owned over 1000 acres of untenanted demesne land at Lismanny in 1906. They held over 500 acres of untenanted land in the Eyrecourt area as well as the houses at Ballynamuddagh and Cloghbrack.

    Residence:
    Balgray House
    Balgray House in Newton Mearns, thought to have been built in the late 19th Century, is now a category 'B' listed building. It was one of the last of the Mearns "big houses", still standing in farmland on the western edge of the parish.

    The house and lands of Balgray was an ancient inheritance of a family called Park. In 1603, Alexander Park alienated these lands to David Pollock of Lee. In 1684, James Pollock was the owner of Balgray and he was fined for supporting the Covenanters. Eventually Balgray was sold to Thomas Pollock who was a wealthy merchant from Glasgow and of a branch of the Pollock family descended from a younger brother of the family from the reign of Queen Mary. In 1818, Thomas Pollock owned the lands and it is known that at this time a small bleachfield was in business in Balgray, employing twenty people. However, by the early 1850s the business had closed. In 1831, the house was unoccupied and had been so for some time, it is not clear if this is the same house that stands today. In 1905, it was the property of James C Ferguson Pollock of Pollock Castle (Upper Pollock).

    Thomas married Janet Wilson. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
