This ambalama is found in the township of Daulagala. The ancient ambalama was located in the stretch of paddy fields at Kotukamba. The access road had been altered after the construction of a new road. C. B. Nugawela, Diyawadana Nilame, had constructed this ambalama in 1914 close to the cart track. The ambalama rests on pillars engraved with designs and fixed to a foundation. The arrangement of seats in the ambalama in 3 levels based on the social status of the occupants is a noticeable feature. The Department of Archaeology currently maintains this building.
