The main deity of the temple is Krishna after "Kamsavadham" sitting in His "Raudra" posture (ferocious posture).[1] The Temple is among the Abhimana Kshethrams which is a list of hoary Vaishnavite shrines.
The temple is also mentioned in the 11th century CE Sanskrit kāvya Mūṣikavaṃśa”.[2]
The sanctum has carvings and murals from the 15th and 16th centuries. In the temple complex there is also a shrine dedicated to Durga which is in middle of a tank.[3] This shrine is one of the 108 Durgalayas of Ancient Kerala. There are shrines for Shiva, Ganapathi, Sastha, Vishvaksena and Snake deities near the temple complex. There are three ponds near this temple.
The temple is managed by TTK Devaswom (Taliparamba, Thrichambaram, Kanjirangad Devasom) which is a major devaswom board administering around 15 temples in Kannur District of Kerala.
The annual temple festival (Utsavam) is a fortnight-long event beginning on Kumbham 22 of Malayalam calendar (which generally falls on 6 March) every year with the Kodiyettam (hoisting of a religious flag) and ends on Meenam 6 (which generally falls on 20 March) with Koodipiriyal (ending of this festival).
