The site, which is in a ruinous condition, features a wall enclosure that is marked by arched recesses. It has short return walls at both ends. The structure is situated within a dense green area, adding to its secluded and tranquil environment. At the center of the enclosure lies a platform, measuring 5.49 meters by 5.79 meters, which is surrounded by pierced brick masonry walls that have been plastered. The platform contains two uninscribed graves, which are believed to be those of Sayyid Zainuddin and Zahuruddin. The construction of the site utilizes random rubble masonry and local grey stone, which are typical materials used in the Lodi architectural style. The overall state of the structure is deteriorating, but it still holds significant historical value as part of the built heritage.
