Prasat Ampil is the remains of “firehouse” (read more here) constructed from laterite featuring a tall tower extending to the east with a hall featuring three windows on its southern side and none on the north. The tower still retains its sandstone crown piece in situ. There is also a basin and the site is only cleared on north and east with dense scrub surrounding the other sides.
The site is located near Chekbor Temple and see that site for details on getting to the area.
