Description:
The
presiding deity in this temple is Lord Ayyappa. In
this temple the deity sits with
the support of two hands in the back side. This
form of Ayyappa is different from other temples.
In this temple deity is considered as 'Brahmachari'.
There
is a close relationship between this temple and
'Budha-Jaina' culture. This deity was believed
to be the protector of 'kakkad vattakkotta'. When
that fort was broken ,somebody brought the idol
here and installed.
The
temple was under the ownership of Avanapparambu
Mana. There is an ancient 'Vishnu' temple just near
this temple.
