The Estate consists of 5 divisions; Fairlawn, Bargeany, Sooriyakande, Mincinglane and Blairavon, with the principal crop being tea.

The history of the Estate can be traced back to the year 1915, when planting was begun by British planters who selected the location due to its ideal climate and hilly terrain. From its beginning till 1972 the Estate was owned by the Fairlawn Tea Company and managed Harrisons & Crossfields Ltd. With the Nationalisation of estates, Fairlawn Estate came under the management of the Sir Lanka State Plantations Corporation. In 1992 during the privatisation of estates, Fairlawn was amalgamated together with Mincinglane Estate and handed over to Horana Plantations PLC.
