The name of this hamlet derives from its location above the Fuente del Lugar, a water supply point near the royal road that connects with the Camino de Chasna, the most important artery of communication between the north and south of the island, which favoured the installation of the first human group in the area and which would later give rise to the initial nucleus of La Granadilla, whose foundation has been historically attributed to the Portuguese Gonzalo González Zarço in the first half of the 16th century.
The constructions that are currently preserved date from the transition from the 19th to the 20th century, although in accordance with the usual practice in our traditional architecture of making use of and recovering construction units and materials, it is very likely that they date back to the 18th century. The farmhouse is made up of several rectangular, single-storey dwellings with single and gabled Arab tile roofs, as well as outbuildings such as stables, tack rooms, gañanías and other outbuildings. The buildings are lined up on both sides of a cobbled road, like a main street. One of the most notable of the buildings is a large one used as a granary. Associated with one of the dwellings, there is an oven for drying fruit.
Other infrastructures include various drying racks for drying fruit, especially figs, both picos and milk figs. The farmhouse is surrounded by terraces and terraces using the jable cultivation system, which favoured the development of traditional crops in this arid territory.
