The fort is in good condition with its bastions and fortification wall still intact. On the right corner of the doorway there is a carved sculpture of Lord Hanuman and a water tank. On the summit there is a two storey bastion in good condition. A bit further from here there are three water tanks and a temple structure. On the top most part of the fort there are 7 water tanks and a storage house named “Laxmi Kothar’. Moving further towards north, there is a bastion on the tip of the fort.
