08.01.2022 Sponsor News: Welcome 'Torryburn Stud' A new major/gold sponsor for 2020!!! We would like to thank the 'Cornish Family' and all the team at Torryburn for their... generosity. #luckycompetitors History of Torryburn stud: In its early days Torryburn was farmed for tobacco, timber and grapes while cattle grazed its pastures. The main homestead was designed by the prominent local architect J.W Pender and built in 1881. The style is classic Victorian Italianate. Torryburn has enjoyed a variety of owners including the Mackellar family, who took possession 1898. The poet, Dorothea MacKellar, was just a teenager when the family moved in. The family purchased the property as one of the worst droughts in the history of white settlement hit the area. One evening in 1904, after some good rains, Dorothea sat on the homestead’s front verandah writing a letter to a friend in England. Each time she looked up, a green veil thickened across the paddock in front of her. This moment inspired part of her classic My Country (many readers will know this poem as I Love a Sunburnt Country"). In her later years, she attributed much of the inspiration for her iconic poem to her years living at Torryburn. In 1989 Torryburn was purchased by Rob and Jenny Ferguson who carried out extensive renovations as well as improving and extending the formal and informal gardens and parklands. It was during the Ferguson’s tenure that Torryburn became a working thoroughbred stud and they enjoyed much success including their filly ‘Ha Ha’ winning the 2001 Golden Slipper. Torryburn was acquired by John Cornish and family in 2002. The family immediately embarked on an extensive programme adding to and improving the existing horse breeding infrastructure with the aim of further building the venture as a solely professional stud. The programme included new barns, a Vet complex, feed storage and the construction of kilometres of fencing. Two adjoining properties were also acquired, as well as a substantial frontage to the magnificent Allyn River including substantial water storage and licences to add to a network of 14 existing dams.
