Site Size & Condition: Small Tuol Prasat Nong Yai (ปราสาทหนองใหญ่ - Pronounced: Pra-saht Nawng Yai)

No on-the-ground evidence remains of this site while satellite images are equally ill-defined. According to Mollerup [1] the FAD reported bricks and a pedestal in 1999 which had disappeared by the time of his visit in 2009. He did however report traces of a surrounding moat and reservoir to the east although our perusal of satellite photos failed to conclusively identify either and we'd suggest that those have now also disappeared.

The site today consists of a small, square, tree-covered mound marked by a simple spirit shrine although a small, elongated pond to the southwest may represent a remnant of the aforementioned moat.
