Scope and Content Royal Clyde Yacht Club (now the Royal Marine Hotel), Marine Parade, Hunter's Quay, Dunoon, Argyll & Bute The headquarters of the Royal Clyde Yacht Club at Hunter's Quay were designed in 1888-9 by Thomas Lennox Watson to replace the club's earlier building destroyed by fire in 1888. This photograph of the exterior was taken in 1890 by Harry Bedford Lemere. The building, which combines both clubhouse and hotel, is built with half-timbered gables in the style of a Tudor hall. It stands in a prominent position above the pier, with views over the East Cowal foreshore to the Firth of Clyde. Hunter's Quay takes its name from a stone pier built by Robert Hunter in 1828. This encouraged the development of large Victorian villas along the East Cowal shore, eventually creating a holiday village which grew to become a suburb of Dunoon.
