In the year 1853, Sri Ramkumar (Thakur’s elder brother) established this school (commonly known as ‘toll’ or ‘Chatuspathi’ in those days), and taught the students in the Jhamapukur area. He had to undertake this work to meet his family needs, as they had lost their father and Sri Ramkumar was practically the bread winner of the family. The toll (school) does not exist now. Instead, there is a Radhakrishna temple (Sri Shyamsundar Jiu) at the same location, and daily worship of the deity is performed.

Gadhadar (later Sri Ramakrishna) while living in the Jhamapukur area in 1853 to 1855, used to often visit Ma Siddheshwari Kali of Thanthania Kalibari, and sing to the Goddess of this temple.
