The ruins of a structure, possibly a temple. Two partial stone columns stand at the either side of the ruins. There are two guard stones, each in front of a column, depicting Nagaraja, an anthropomorphic representation of the cobra king, holding a branch in one hand and a pot in the other. Tall grass covers the ground and partial walls are visible behind the columns.
