Location of General Hill's HQ November 1810

By 15 November 1810, Wellington's Army was occupying the Lines of Torres Verdras. General Rowland Hill's Corps (his 2nd Division and Hamilton's Portuguese Division) was on the right flank of the lines, along the Tagus River.

His headquarters was at Alhandra. However in Lord Hill's Letters from the Peninsula. Darlington: Napoleonic Archive; (no date, probably 2003). There are two letters dated 3 and 7 November 1810, that have in their header that they written at Lobral Pequeña near Alhandra.

I have searched Google Maps and have not found any location that resembles Lobral Pequeña.

Does anyone have an idea what its modern name is?

Thanks!
