- Description:
- Seen here are numerous architectural elements like pillar remains, shikhara (superstructure) portions, and plinth mouldings that were found in the vicinity of the panchayatana (main shrine with four subsidiary shrines in each cardinal directions) Someshwar Mahadev temple complex. All these elements must have formed part of the original temple structure but fell apart later. All these remains have been accumulated on a platform to the west of the temple complex. The several shikhara remains indicate that the mandapa (pillared hall) of the temple must have had a ghanta samavarna (bell roof) variety of shikhara. Broken parts of the shekhari (multi-spire) shikhara of the mulaprasada (main shrine) are also found in these remains.

- Description:
- This is the south-facing elevation of the Shiva Temple from the Arthuna group of temples. According to its plan, the temple consists of a mukhamandapa (front porch), a mandapa (pillared hall), an antarala (vestibule or antechamber) and a garbhagriha (sanctum sanctorum). Above the garbhagriha rises a lofty shekhari (multi-spire) shikhara. This is the only temple that has its shikhara in its complete form, albeit renovated. The temple structure on the exteriors has undergone several restorations. Many fallen architectural elements have been reassembled.

Located on a high plinth, the temple has evidently been significantly damaged because of which its mandapa has not survived. The architectural patterns of the temple are different from most other temples in the Arthuna group.
