Mar Hall
Mar Hall is a 5-star hotel and golf resort in Erskine, Renfrewshire. It is situated in Erskine House, a category A listed building. Formerly the building was the Erskine Hospital. ==History== The Lords Blantyre came into ownership of the Erskine Estate and Erskine House during the early 18th century. In 1828 Major General Robert W. Stuart, the 11th Lord Blantyre commissioned the present house. The latest Erskine House was constructed between 1828–45 at a cost of £50,000.〔 It was designed by Sir Robert Smirke, the architect of the British Museum. Sir Charles Barry designed the fountain & garden lay-out. A nearby quarry (now disused) provided the stone required for construction. The oak interior was imported from Quebec, Canada. The building lay empty as the peerage of the Lords Blantyre ended in 1900. It was then renovated and opened as the Princess Louise Scottish Hospital for Limbless Sailors and Soldiers in 1916. This was to treat soldiers returning from the First World War.〔〔 A nearby monument commemorates the original owner of Erskine House. It is called Blantyre Monument.
