Hi All,
Thanks for the replies and the links to the Cleland Testimonial Building.
I have finally found "Thornhill" in Tasmania. It was the name of a property owed by an Andrew Downie, also from Scotland,
"By 1824 Downie had acquired some land of his own, by grant. This farm he called Thornhill, and during 1825 he cleared part of it and sowed crops, as well as running a flock of sheep."
