Renovated Khandoba temple outside village

Old stone houses are in disrepair 		Located in the family's ancestral land near their home, this house was the first in the village to have a tin roof, and was hence called `Bamanacha patra' (the tin roof of the Brahmins). The name, which got attached to the land as well, was made famous by Gadima, after he wrote an essay on it. Tatya got the house extended and rebuilt in the 1980s. As the roof is tiled, the `patra' is not seen!
