"De moradas del señor a bodegas: planimetría histórica y transformación urbana de El Puerto de Santa María"
No tengo más contexto. Es el título de una comunicación presentada en un congreso:

From manor houses to wine cellars
Explanation:
With more context, "wine cellars" could become simply, e.g., "bodegas", and "manor houses" could be any grand house belonging to a local aristocrat/lord.

This is a document about "transformación urbana", so it seems likely that it's connected with historical town planning...?

Hmm! I posted this before seeing the text in question... However, as pointed out by the Asker, this is indeed just one of 25 titles of oral presentations on the agenda, and viewing the text is no help whatsoever!
Perhaps if I could read the actual presentation, it might make sense

OR:

From castles to wineries

From castles/chateaux to boutiques/ bodegas/wine cellars

OR any combination of the above.

You might just possibly consider using "chateaux" for its wine connotations... If you prefer to use the French spelling, then it would of course be "châteaux", but I probably wouldn't go that far in this case.

I should point out that in English, assigning a capital "L" to "lord" implies God (the deity!), and not the lord of the manor or any other human lord, which generally only command a lower-case initial letter.

@ broca:
Thanks for the added context! This rather confirms my original guess.
