Site features the ruinous remains of a laterite building known to be one of the many firehouse/resthouses that were built along the ancient road. The site is heavily overgrown (03/22) but its typical shape is easily noticeable, a tower with a forebody/hall leading east and a series of windows in the southern wall.
There are several ancient sites in the nearby area see Kdei Ta Kom group.
