A presently uncleared site, first uncovered in 1918 by Henri Marchal and referred to as Terrace #3, it’s a large sandstone terrace, near to 40 m long and 20 m wide, surrounded by sema stones, and opening to the east with a small laterite building of only around 3m sq. It is suggested to be one of the earlier terraces in the transition away from temple building (c. 14th-15th centuries).
