Located just west of Kulean in Preah Vihear province and north of the highway, Prasat Ba Thang is a group of three temples, built of sandstone and laterite that open to the east. The central tower is built of sandstone and may be rectangular with a forebody, reasonably complete, and built of sandstone while the shrines on either side are smaller and built of laterite with sandstone elements. The site is heavily overgrown at the time (01/23) and cannot tell you too much more. It appears it also had a moat.
From the trail leading to the site, there are also wonderful views across to southwest corner of Phnom Tbeng.
