The structural activity within the fort commences from nearly 12 m away from the fort-wall. An extensive structural complex covering an area of about 300 sq. m and comprising a couple of rectangular rooms and enclosures measuring on an average 1·95 × 2·65 m and 3·20 × 4·45 m respectively is evidenced only from robber's trenches. The walls of burnt brick, 50× 26× 8 cm have been practically obliterated due to systematic brick robbing except at a few spots where truncated walls are available. The width of the walls ranges between 52 to 68 cm. For these walls deep and wide foundation trenches have been dug in the underlying deposit of red painted gravels and then packed with gravels in the matrix of hard clay.
