| Local / Traditional description associated with Built Heritage / Site निर्मित धरोहर / स्थल से सम्बंधित स्थानीय/ परम्परागत विवरण |
The house and the area in general is witness to many painful historical events. The area was one of the most affected ones during the Indian partition of 1947 and was badly destroyed in the earthquake of 2005. These events have therefore made a permanent and prominent impression on the people and also the urban fabric of the area and add, in unique ways, to the cultural essence of the place. |

There is also a well within the garden premise of the house which is believed to be 80ft deep. The garden entrance gateway picks up heavily from the classical style of architecture and is constructed of stone ashlars.
