There is a shrine of [[Khodiyarmata]] on the Khodiar hill, the image in which is said to have been installed by the [[Gohil]] chieftains of Umrala. Two hills, called respectively the Thapnath and the Isavo, lie to the eastward of Chogath. On the Thapnath hill is a temple of the Thapnath Mahadev, which enjoyed an endowment made by Thakor Sarangji of Umrala.

Chogath is a flourishing village, and bears wheat crops of excellent quality which is raised by irrigation. The village is no doubt an ancient one, and was very near [[Vallabhipur]], and though no architectural remains are now existent, large bricks, such as those found at Valabhi, are constantly dug up. There is an old ''[[paliya]]'' or memorial stone here, the inscription on which is illegible, but the date, [[Samvat]] 1516 (1460 AD), is plain enough.<ref name="bg"/>
