The mound has almost been encroached by cultivated fields except the small portion on the northern edge. Kanjur and lime stones are scattered on the site apart of large number of potshards. At a distance of about 200 m on the north-west can be seen a small mound roughly square in shape resembling a Buddhist stupa, which according to the local people is the grave of a martyr.
