Photograph of a stone shrine with four pillars and a dark stone Nandi bull statue seated inside, facing forward within the open mandapa. A small dark plaque sits on the base in front of the statue. Mossy stone walls, green trees and a partly blue sky surround the temple. A lone figure in white clothes walks on the left edge of the frame in the distance, and a rust-coloured metal grille stands at right.

Inside sits a dark black stone Nandi bull statue, seated on a raised stone plinth. A small oil lamp rests on a ledge of the left pillar, and a bowl sits on the ground. Beyond the pavilion a road runs past, with a cyclist and a signboard showing a temple tower illustration.
