With the fragmentation of the Cera Empire, the region of Kottayam came under the sway of the Vadakkumkoor and Thekkumkoor dynasties. The Sree Rama Lakshmana Swamy Temple at Vennimala near Puthuppally came under the Thekkumkoor dynasty, which ruled the region for a long period. The main idol is that of Lakshmana Perumal. The temple is facing west. The entrance to the temple is through a gopura. The srikovil is in circular form with a neck-shaped mukhamantapa in front. The exterior of the srikovil has beautiful darusilpas (wooden sculptures).
