This is a regular stone pagoda consisted of stylobate, pagoda-bodies and roof stones.
On the body of pagoda there is a roof stone, Okgaeseok, and the base of Okgaeseok is made up of 3 or 4 layers which are irregular form. At present, there are 4 layers of Tapsin body and 4 layers of Okgaeseok roof stone, but top part is now in missing.
