This small mosque, believed to have been built around 150 years ago by an old woman known only as Budhiya, holds historical and cultural significance. It follows the Indo-Persian architectural style and is built on a rectangular plan. The mosque features an arcaded corridor with pointed arches, each superimposed by uniquely multi-cusped arches. Inside, there are a series of arched niches and fluted Shahjahani-style columns, showcasing intricate craftsmanship. Although the mosque has undergone several renovations, it retains its historical character. The structure is made of Lakhori bricks, with sandstone pillars painted green. The walls are coated with lime, and the doors are made of iron, also painted green. Prayers continue to be offered here five times a day, maintaining its active religious role in the community.
