Temple
2km from Somarasampettai is a temple connected with the Kumara Vayalur Murugan temple that is a monument of Sundara Chola and Adithya II periods.

Balasubramaniar is presented with a face and four hands along with Devayani in standing posture. Idols have been discovered in various places inside the temple. At one location Saneeswaran faces Murugan. In another the Shiva statue named Agastheeswarar is tilted, allegedly because Lord Shiva, while accepting a gift from a handicapped woman (as a token of love), had to bend sideways to receive it. The temple was dated to 969 A.D. In another spot the Vishnu statue is just outside Shiva Sannidi.
