Summary

Description
English: Jorbangla temple at Chandrakona located at Ghatal subdivision of Paschim Medinipur district of West Bengal. This is Laterite stone built temple with extensive stucco decoration.

The temple is twenty feet high, around 28.6 feet in length and 26 feet in width. The temple is devoid of any foundation stone and is considered to be made in the 17th century. There is no other temple of this style of architecture at present in Chandrakona.

Although the temple has been restored and protected under State Archaeology department, yet the temple lies in complete ignorance. The contrasting fact is that despite the fact worship takes place inside the temple, it is also a storehouse of fodder for animal and the locals put cow dung on its walls. There is always a clothesline hanging in front of this temple which hinders in taking decent photo of this temple.

This is a photo of ASI monument number
S-WB-77.
