Catalan term or phrase: domenges templers
El text posa:
la seva aparença exterior ens podria fer pensar en una típica torre de guaita, però més aviat es tracta d'un habitatge residencial que presideix l'explotació agrícola dels *domenges templers* i controla el pas per l'antic camí de Bot.
Sé el que són els templers, però domenges...??
It's a tourist guide for Terra Alta. Many thanks in advance..

Explanation:
I do not know the English translator and probably someone else can give a wiser guess than mine, but I can give you the meaning of 'domenge':

DOMENGE
|| 1. adj. ant. Propi del senyor; cast. señorial.
|| 2. m. ant. Domini, propietat senyorial; cast. dominio.
En la toponímia menor abunden les formes el Domenge o els Domenges, que designen partides rurals que un temps foren de propietat senyorial (Calasseit, Guissona, Sant Guim, La Canonja, Benassal, etc.).

Templars' estates


Explanation:
I agree with Maria's answers. I just wanted to suggest 'estates' as a possible translation for 'domenges'.

I love that dictionary too, by the way - it's essential for Mallorcan (etc.) vocabulary!

Explanation:
Veronica
Malgrat que no em desagrada i trobo que queda força bé el que ha triat la Sheila: “ estates” jo escolliria “dominions” ja que la paraula s´hi sembla força a la catalana
