This is a brick-built single-domed square structure, measuring 33 feet each side, with an additional square projection, 10-ft. each side, at the north-east corner for a stair case to go to the roof. At the dado level stone courses have been provided. The walls are slightly tapering. The exterior facade on the south makes a pleasing appearance by its varied surface treatment. The face is subdivided into five vertical panels by brick-lining. The end ones are plain. The middle has the main arched opening, fitted with stone door frame and brackets to take a chajja. The door jambs have scroll carvings while the lintel has an inscription and the sill has the useful half moon-stone.
