Remains of an old farmhouse on the Vomero hill, which became part of the great Villa Ricciardi estate in 1801.

On the Vomero hill some traces remain of the Masseria Miniero, which in 1801 became part of the Hortus Camaldolensis, the huge farming estate linked to Villa Ricciardi.In the outer courtyard an old wayside shrine survives, once flanked by a chapel already shown on the Duke of Noja's map of 1775. It is one of the last traces of the agricultural Vomero, before the building boom.
