The buildings of this hamlet date back to the second half of the eighteenth century. This emerges from some engravings on rocks.

In fact it was the custom to carve, at the time of the construction of a building, the stones placed on top of the access points to these structures: metato (a rustic building used for gathering and drying chestnuts), houses, huts.

As an example, here is a picture of a ruin, a metato, abandoned and now demolished, bearing the date 1768 on the upper stone of the entrance.

Returning to this place are the people linked to these locations: born or who lived here. Some had not returned for several decades.

They recount: in the post-war period (late forties) all the houses were inhabited. Given the modest needs of those times, in every house, even of small dimensions, several families lived.

There were three mills, thirteen metati, a bar, a grocery and tobacconist shop ("Sali e Tabacchi"), and several huts for livestock and hay . In total, about fifty people lived there.

At that time "Isola" did not deserve the status of a mere locality, but rather that of a small village. In the summer, the parish of Roccalberti brought youth camps here to spend their holidays.

There was also a covered dance floor with a stage called "Pianella". People from neighboring villages who loved going dancing would gather here, accompanied by live music.

Of all this, only the memories of the people remain.

The Isola locality, which is part of the Municipality of Camporgiano, consists of two groups of houses scattered along the edge of the Edron River.

It is reachable via the SS445 road leading to the village of Vagli.

This is essentially a discontinuous rural settlement of "historical origin along the ancient Via Vandelli".

The area consists of residential buildings, some of which possess architectural value. The houses with pavilion roofs were historically used as master residences, while others served agricultural activities.

The Isola nucleus is significant not so much for its size as for its settlement structure, where an internal dirt carriage road served as a connection to the hamlet of Roccalberti.

The houses are arranged in a more or less scattered layout, defining an agglomerotate with a medium density that reveals identifiable hierarchies and both functional and morphological organizations.
