A relatively small temple, the Archaeological Survey of India has dated it to around the mid 7th century CE,[25] but George Michell dates it to the early 8th century.[26] The temple faces east and is built around a square garbha griha(sacrum sanctum).[25] It houses a linga on a pitha (platform), and the Nandi bull faces it from outside; there is a mandapa around the sacrum center. Another mandapa provides a circumambulation path in an expanded axial layout. Much of the temple has been eroded or was damaged in the following centuries. The Shikhara (spire) is a northern Nagara style (Rekhanagara) with a sukanasa projection on the east. The sukanasa has a damaged Natarajaaccompanied by Parvati.[25]
