Dalton, Commissioner of Chhotanagpur, visited the place and found three large temples in the midst of the ruins of many more.

Such temples had “curvilinear shikhara with chaitya mesh decoration, surmounted by a large amalaka and kalasa finial.

Examples of such dilapidated deuls are still standing at Satdeula (in Bardhaman), Bahulara and Sonatapal (in Bankura) and Deulghat (in Purulia).

The corbelled entrance of the southern temple is high and graceful with a delicate curve.

The stucco application includes scrollwork with geese and foliation, dwarfs familiar from Pala–Sena age art.
