The east wall is the least preserved portion of
the ruin: here, at both ends, the walls stand
almost in their original condition though in
only five courses, the longest course reaching
over 2.50 m in height. Between the ends
two courses are still in situ, one being hidden
in debris. At the north end one half of the
lowest course is in situ and this course is still
preserved at one or two other points on W and S.
The base course is about 2m hgih, the
second about 2.50 m, the third 1.50 m, the
fourth is a strong? course of .5 m with mouldings
and the fifth, of which only four blocks are
in situ, is a deep freize 2 m high carved with lions
of colossal size in relief that was originally
high; but which has weathered nearly flat.
About the temple was a terrace 16-18m broad
this is strewn with ruins.
The material is limestone of the country,
of various degrees of hardness, often decayed.
