In 1897 at a cost of £3 10 shillings (£3.50), Tom Morris (Snr) was employed to lay out 18 holes and in 1927 James Braid supervised the construction of several new holes to produce the basic layout which, with the exception of longer tees and modern bunkering, remains largely unchanged to this day. Testament indeed to the skill of these famous course architects. From its beginning the Club has had connections with the Army. In early days the militia were encamped on what is today's practice ground and when Winston Barracks were built near by, a close affinity between the Club and the Cameronian Regiment was established.
