Scope and Content Turnberry Hotel, Turnberry, Ayrshire, from the south Turnberry Hotel, a huge complex built on a prominent site overlooking the Firth of Clyde, was designed by the Glasgow architect, James Miller, for the Glasgow & South Western Railway Company, and was photographed in 1906 by Harry Bedford Lemere. The hotel, built as a series of Neo-Georgian facades around three side of a rectangle, had a central formal garden divided by a long conservatory (left). A pergola, a covered walkway made from decorative trelliswork, completed the rectangle. The hotel is considered to be one of Miller's masterpieces, and the surviving drawings of its design show 'a tremendous grasp of planning and technical detail'. His other hotels include Peebles Hydro and sketch plans for auxiliary housing at Gleneagles. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
