The Downshire was a steamship, likely active around 1915, and is recorded with precise geographical coordinates in Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment. It was lost in Scottish waters, though details of lives or cargo lost remain unspecified; its significance lies in its contribution to maritime history and the accuracy of early 20th-century shipwreck mapping.
