    The history of Palagapandi Estate, like many estates in Nelliyampathy, is rooted in the colonial era when British planters first recognized the potential of the region's climate and soil for tea and coffee cultivation. Over the years, the estate has likely changed hands and adapted to evolving agricultural practices.

The legacy of these early planters is still visible in the architecture of the bungalows and the layout of the plantations.
