The ruins of the structure are believed to date back to the 18th century CE. Although much of it is now in a dilapidated state, the remaining portions reflect the grandeur it once possessed. Built in the Indo-Persian architectural style, the structure is primarily composed of random rubble masonry, dressed stone masonry, and lime mortar. Local stones and sandstone were used in its construction, suggesting the use of regionally available materials. It is likely that the building was once finished with lime plaster and adorned with stucco or relief work, which were common decorative elements of that era. No specific local or traditional description is associated with this heritage site.
