Scope and Content Turnberry Hotel, Turnberry, Ayrshire, from the west Turnberry Hotel was designed in 1904-6 by the Glasgow architect, James Miller, for the Glasgow & South Western Railway Company. The hotel was photographed in 1906 by the distinguished architectural photographer, Harry Bedford Lemere. The hotel, designed with a long Neo-Georgian façade, stands in a magnificent position overlooking the Firth of Clyde. Its line of windows and attic dormers have splendid views over the terraces to Turnberry lighthouse, Arran and Ailsa Craig. James Miller was involved in an ongoing process of additions and alterations to the hotel until the mid-1920s. The hotel complex included two golf courses, the Ailsa and the Arran, and was served by its own branch line with connections to Girvan and Ayr. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
