Prasat Kuk Pring Chrom (ប្រាសាទគុកព្រីងជ្រុំ - Pronounced: Pra-saht Kouk Pring Chom)
A partially collapsed, east-facing, brick tower, surrounded by a laterite enclosure with a ruined - also laterite - eastern gopura. Both the north and south doorjambs of the tower have Sanskrit inscriptions, catalogued together as K.92. A 10th-century style sandstone lintel, depicting the Churning of the Ocean of Milk, is now reportedly preserved in Wat Tuol Chrom just to the west of the prasat.
A large rectangular reservoir lies immediately east of the site.
