In the middle of Serra da Carregueira is where Quinta da Fonteireira is located.
There are references to the place since 1525. Of the original 350 hectares, 15 remain, the rest today belong to Belas Clube de Campo. This was the beginning of the Águas Livres Aqueduct,
at this time deactivated, it accompanied the festo line of Tapada do Grilo, it was supplied by several water mines
It was from here that the water came out for watering the garden, orange groves and vegetable gardens and running the water features.
