Site Size & Condition: Small Ruin Tuol Prasat Kraov (ទួលប្រាសាទក្រៅ - Pronounced: Toohl P'ra-saht K'ralv)

The remains of a small brick temple ruin, where one can see about half a metre of brick walls sitting atop of a laterite foundation. The inner area of the mound has been heavily looted as evident by the big hole in the ground. It may be likely that this site remained mostly standing in the early 20th century, and due to the excessive looting the tower likly collapsed within the last century.

The temple is surrounded by a moat with an east entrance causeway. Two reservoirs can be seen, one to the north Baray Prasat Kraov Cheung and one to the southwest Baray Prasat Krav Tboung.

The area also shows evidence of early settlement, with a habitation mound Tuol Kok Kraov I to the south with lots of fragments of ceramics present. Another habitation mound is also visible a short distance to the east Tuol Kok Kraov II.
