Harrington Park is named after the Harrington, a ship seized by convicts from Sydney Harbour in 1808. Its owner, Captain William Douglas Campbell, was granted 2,000 acres here in 1813 as compensation and named the land after his lost vessel. In 1944 Sir Warwick Fairfax bought the estate, where he grew camellias and bred Poll Hereford cattle. The homestead at 1 Hickson Circuit and Orielton on Northern Road are both heritage listed.
