FORTWALL

The fort wall is massively built of stone rubbles in lime mortar with occasional use of lakhauri bricks at top and is surrounded all around by a deep and wide moat filled with water. The fort has only two gateways i.e. Chowburja Gate on the south flanked by round bastions on either side and Ashtadhatu Gate on the north. Both the gateways are approachable through long bridges. The bridge in front of Chowburja Gate is approximately 50 m long and 12 m wide.  The other bridge is comparatively longer. It is datable to the eighteenth century A.D.
