It also contains a linga and Jaladhari in the midst of it. There is also a Siva temple known as Siddhnatha. Originally this temple was of Pancayatana type. But as it was too much mutilated, the principal shrine was once got down and then was rebuilt in V. S. 1868-69 (1332-33 A. D.) in such a way that its original fabric might not be distrubed. The Jagati or platform of the temple was a new erection but the rest of the temple was kept in tact and replaced over it. Only few wanting and missing sculptures were copied out and replaced. The figures of the principal niches of Jangha moulding are new additions but the others are original. However the corner hrines, being not restored, exist no longer.
