- Description:
- The four small temples are among the few well-preserved structures. All are single shrine structures, simple in form, and adorned with phamsana (pyramidical stepped) type of shikharas (superstructure). The smallest shrine among these is probably a samadhi shrine (a commemorative shrine built in memory of a pious deceased individual). In the foreground is a plinth of another temple, which is in ruinous condition now. The phamsana shikharas of these shrines are peculiar as there are very few of this style of shikharas in Arthuna.

- Description:
- The shikhara (superstructure) of the Mandaleshwar Mahadev Temple is built in brick. It is in the shekhari (multi-spire) variety of Latina shikhara where the mulashringa (main spire) is complimented by many small shringas (spires) emanating from it. These half and miniature shringas provide a cascading effect to the shikhara. The mulashringa is styled as a Latina sikhara. It is made up of five bands, in which the central band is broad, flanked by two bands each on either side. These side bands are of equal size. The brick shikhara is likely to be a later addition to the temple.
