Scope and Content Detail of staircase in Ballure House, Argyll and Bute Ballure is thought to have been built as a dower house, which is a house for a widow, by a MacDonald of Largie. The villa, dating to the early 19th century, originally consisted of an L-plan main block and a lower service wing to the north. The staircase hall in Ballure House is quite large and has an open-well stair. It is built of timber with a cast iron balustrade and mahogany handrail. The newel post at the foot of the stair has a spiral top. The interior of the house is divided into three sections. The stair is in the central division with the main rooms in the divisions on either side. The drawing room is on the ground floor on one side of the stair with the dining room on the other.
