Description: A Baradari, situated on the G.T. Road, architecturally the best monument of the locality. The area of the monument is enclosed by a substantial enclosure wall built in small bricks and lime plaster with decorations of merlons specially on the west enclosure wall. The pillars are in Sang-e-Abri and the floor frames in black stone. The eve is of Naushera black stone. The whole structure has been carefully set in the middle of the southern side of the oblong courtyard to give it a well balanced look. The other Baradari which is in the north-west corner is of the same description and size as the one described above. It appears that in the north east corner of the enclosure there was also some structure which now has altogether disappeared.
