Where this comes from
This temple came from a public map listing (2026-10-31 Villupuram district villages), and its address from — nowhere: no listing at its plus code could be matched, so this page gives only what its place tells. None of it has been checked on the ground. The name is written our way (title case, Sri, Kovil); the listing's own spelling is kept above.
