| Description of Building/ Structure/Site
इमारत/संरचना/स्थल का विवरण |
The baoli has been recently discovered and cleaned up to reveal its form. It is square in shape and fairly deep. The baoli is lined with large slabs of stone. Going by the presence of a spout it may be assumed that the baoli in addition to ground water was also fed by an external source like a spring. Three sculptures, of Bramha, Vishnu Shiva are present within the well. The spout of the baoli, represents a Makra crocodile , and is made from a single piece of stone. The well has dried up but still has some water at the base. |
