This is one of the oldest survived Islamic structures of sixteenth century CE. It is situated nearly 2km away from Rangamati mosque. The brick structure is plastered with lime-surkhi. It was built during the reign of Hussain Shah, the Nawab of Gaur, who ruled the area during 15th - 16th century CE. No significant architectural features are noticed except a brick wall of 2m height with equidistant pillars served as the backdrop of the Idgah. There is an ancient well on southern side of the structure.
