Lombo das Adegas

A populated place in the parish of Ponta do Sol. Pedro Delgado, a former settler, had land there as a land grant, which later became an entailed institution. Probably founded by this family, there was a small oratory dedicated to Saint Anthony, which in 1853 was expanded and converted into a public chapel, being the third hermitage of that invocation in that parish.
