The present fort has a wide area encircled by masonry walls along with huge bastions at the corners.
The fort has bastions both square as well as circular, built at irregular intervals . Inside the fort are two palaces and a temple complex. The temple dedicated to Siva was built on Stellate plan, imitating the Kakatiya style of architecture.
