This mosque, built between the 15th and 16th centuries CE, reflects the Indo-Persian architectural style. It stands on a raised rectangular platform and features a prominent facade with three arched entrances. Surrounding these entrances are a series of vertically and horizontally arranged niches, enhancing the visual appeal of the structure. Atop the mosque is a circular dome set on an octagonal drum, which is adorned with a battlement design. The structure is primarily built using rubble masonry and lime mortar, while red sandstone has been used for the cornice and brackets, adding to its architectural elegance. There is no local or traditional description associated with the site.
