This Temple is located very close to Thiruvallur to Thiruttani Main Road close to the Southern Bank of Poondi Reservoir and could be easily identified by the Temple's Entrance Arch. The Temple has  a five tiered Rajagopuram. The Presidng Deity is Sri Vaseeswarar or otherwise known as Sri Pasoornathar, an incarnation of God Shiva. Sri Vaseeswarar is a Swayambhu Lingam and is firmly placed on a square pedestal. The Lingam which is tilted slightly bears a scar mark on its top and it is said that this Lingam is never touched even by the Priests during Poojas or the daily rituals. Hence He is known as  THEENDA THIRUMENI. The Vimana tower above the Sanctum Sanctorum is Gajabrushta (just like the top back of an Elephant)  in design. The Consort Parvathi is known as Goddess Thangathali or Sri Paupathinayaki. The Goddess Blesses Her Devotees from a separate Shrine to the right of Sri Vaseeswarar Shrine. There are eleven different Pillayar or Vinayagar of various size, all kept within an enclosure which is known as VINAYAGAR SABHAI.

Saints Thirunavukkarasar and Thirugnansambandar had sung several Hymns in praise of this Temple.  This Temple is revered in the 7th Century's Thevaram and is a Paadal Petra Sthalam. It is believed that King Karikala Cholan II had built this Temple. There are Shrines for Sri Murugan, Sri Iyyappan, Sri Natarajar and Sri Veerabhadrar. Unlike other Shiva Temples Sri Kaala Bhairavar is not found here. Instead there is a Swarna Bhairavar. The Swarna Kaali's legs are bound and special Poojas are done on Full Moon Days. The Navagraha Sannidhi is very spacious and quite different from other Temples. 

There is an Annadhana Koodam on the rear of the Temple where Devotees are served Free Lunch and Prasadams. The Sthala Viruksham is a Bhamboo Tree. The Temple needs are looked after very well by the Thiruttani Devasthanam under whose jurisdiction this Temple falls. The Temple has a huge sprawling area but is kept very clean and tidy under the supervision of the Chief Priest M.Rajappa Gurukkal. Pradosham, Thiruvadhirai, Aippasi Annabishekam, Vaikasi Brahmotsavam and Shivarathiri are celebrated in a grand manner. Devotees who wish to come to this Temple are advised to buy flowers and other Divine items from their place itself since there are not so many flower shops closeby.
