Scotchmans Lead, Victoria

Scotchmans Lead, Victoria

Scotchmans Lead is a rural locality, 6 km (3.7 statute miles) from Buninyong, in South Western Victoria, Australia. Scotchmans Lead sits between the Yarrowee River, Midland Highway and Scotchmans Lead Road. It has recently been renamed Scotchmans Lead, after a proposal by the Ballarat City Council to change its name back to its historic days.

Scotchmans Lead was once a prominent mining area and farming area, with many properties still rearing animals such as cows and horses. The former Scotchmans Lead school, itself originally a church, has recently been turned into a bed and breakfast.
