Not illustrated. 1882 Excerpt: ...is a small semicircular-domed niche, supported on a bracket in the corner. The whole building is 70 feet long and 26 feet broad outside. But in spite of its small size the general appearance of this mosque is striking, owing, perhaps, as much as to neatness of its workmanship as to the harmony of its proportions.1 The other buildings at Sadhora are of much later date, the earliest dated one belonging to the time of Jahangir. It is probable, however, that the Jami Masjid was of earlier date, as it was entirely faced with glazed tiles. Nearly the whole of the building has fallen down, one arch only now remaining.

Two gateways of private dwellings, of which one is said to have been the Kazi-ki-Haveli, are also covered with glazed tiles ornamented with geometrical patterns in blue, yellow, and green. One of them has an inscription with the date of A.H. 1029. Close by is the Kazion-ka Masjid, 58 feet 8 inches long, with three doorways to the fr0nt, each inscribed.
