In the north wall of the small rear garden was a rectangular niche. The niche sat 1.05m above the ground and its interior walls were coated in stucco. A raised white stucco border was present around the niche which was decorated with black stripes. The wall around the niche and border was painted red and marked off as a panel by thick black lines. On each side of the niche were panels featuring yellow and black serpents. On the back wall of the niche was a reclining female figure set underneath a sort of awning. Before the kline stood a three-legged table with three jars. Fiorelli identified this deity as Libera. On the floor in front of the niche stood a cylindrical masonry altar, which was coated in white stucco and painted in red and yellow imitation marble. Photographs of the room indicate that there may have been two phases of niches in this room, as a larger arched niche was located just to the right of the rectangular one, however, this was filled in prior to eruption and was not visible in Boyce’s time. This earlier niche appears to have been coated in red stucco. The altar is no longer preserved.
