Since late 12th cent. this site was used as ferry point and was also known for a number of granaries(gold), from where the name Gola Ghat devired. However, after opening the bridge at Raja Ghat in 1887 the site had lost its importance. At this ghat there is a Puranic reference of Pisegila Tirtha, while at the top exits the shrine of Burgu Kesava (Visnu).
