This structure dates back to the post-Aurangzeb era, although it does not exhibit the typical features of Mughal architecture. Built in the Indo-Persian style, it is a single-storey building constructed on a rectangular plan and rests on a slightly elevated platform. The structure features a shallow oblong roof with a vaulted interior, and a frontal verandah marked by arched openings. The roof is adorned with a petalled design, adding a decorative touch. The building materials include lakhori bricks, Delhi quartzite, and lime plaster, while the flooring is made of stone. There are no known local or traditional stories associated with this built heritage.
