AddressTullimbar Lane, TullimbarDescription'Hillcrest' was located on the rise behind 'Toongla' and Tullimbar School, in Tullimbar Lane.

It was typical of a clearing lease style slab hut.

John Michael O'Gorman lived at 'Hillcrest' for many years, until 1952, a month or so after his marriage to Nancye Rosyln Uhr, when the couple left the district.

John Michael O'Gorman was the son of Joseph Phillip O'Gorman and Ethel Jane Daley, and the grandson of Michael O'Gorman and Catherine Collins. Nancye Uhr was the daughter of Mr and Mrs N. Uhr of Point Perpendicular Lighthouse.

John Denis Condon farmed 'Hillcrest' prior to John O'Gorman. John's parents were John Joseph Condon and Catherine Louisa McCarthy. John Condon purchased the property of 87 acres from George Gear in 1918.

It is believed the property was known as 'Tullimbar View' when the Gear family owned it, from at least 1885.
