It has recently{{when|date=December 2015}} been renamed Scotchmans Lead from Yarrowee, 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{{clarify timeframe|date=November 2018}} been turned into a bed-and-breakfast. Scotchman's Lead Post Office opened on 17 January 1865, was renamed Yarrowee in 1875, and closed in 1961.[2] References1. ^{{Census 2016 AUS|id=SSC22232 |name=Scotchmans Lead (State Suburb) |accessdate=19 March 2018 |quick=on}} {{Ballarat_suburbs}}{{VictoriaAU-geo-stub}}2. ^{{Citation| last = Premier Postal History | title = Post Office List | url = https://www.premierpostal.com/cgi-bin/wsProd.sh/Viewpocdwrapper.p?SortBy=VIC&country= | accessdate = 2008-04-11 }} 2 : Ballarat|Mining towns in Victoria (Australia) |
