The tomb was constructed during the Lodi period, following the reign of Sikander Lodi. It showcases architectural features typical of that era, particularly the Indo-Persian style. The structure consists of a domed chamber with an arched opening on the northern side; however, entry is currently prohibited. The drum of the dome is decorated with a battlement design, adding to the structure’s historic character. The tomb is built using random rubble masonry and lime mortar, materials commonly used during the Lodi era. No local or traditional associations are currently linked to the site.
