Site Size & Condition: Small Ruin Ku Noi (กู่น้อย - Pronounced: Koo Noi)

Laterite terrace or platform located some 350m west of Prasat Nong Ku. Its 80-degree orientation is close to, although not identical, to that of the arogyasala although it does appear to correspond to the alignment of the adjacent reservoir T45017.

The low, rectangular platform has stairs on its east side and traces of an entrance causeway continuing east on the same axis, but the remains of whatever structure (s) originally sat upon it are no longer existent. A sandstone pedestal lies atop the platform while traces of a surrounding moat are discernable on satellite images.

The site has been cleared and the platform has apparently been renovated but we're unaware of what, if any, artefacts have been unearthed on the site and, for now, dating is problematic.
