“Saritphong Dam in order to store water and draw water along the canal to send water to the city wall into the silver pond and gold pond to be used in the city and the royal palace in ancient times”
This earthwork dam was formed to hold back water between Phra Bat Yai and Kiew-Ay-Ma Hills and restored by Thailand's Irrigation Department. Water from the dam will be used as a reserve whenever the water level in other reservoirs goes down. This dam is referred to in the Sukhothai inscription.
