Scope and Content Main Staircase, Turnberry Hotel, Turnberry, Ayrshire Turnberry Railway Hotel was designed by the Glasgow architect, James Miller, for the Glasgow & South Western Railway Company. The interior was photographed shortly after the hotel opened in 1906 by the architectural photographer, Harry Bedford Lemere. The main staircase, with wineglass balusters and a broad moulded handrail, rises from the inner hall to the bedroom corridor on the floor above. The stairwell, designed in an early 18th-century Revival style, has panelled walls and bold plasterwork. Turnberry was one of several hotels which responded to demand for golfing facilities. It had two 18-hole championship courses, the Arran and the Ailsa, and a special golfers wing containing a bar, golfers' room, drying room, showers and plunge bath.
