This temple is at Chorottur, Vaniyamkulam in Palakkad district. The eldest member of Pozhathumana, a Namboothiri family at Chorottur, used to worship at the Kodungaloor Sree Kurumba Bhagavathy every Monday. When he found it difficult to walk there in his old age, he prayed that the Goddess would come nearer to him.  While coming back he took a bath at the Thiruvanchikuzhi Siva temple pond. When he took the umbrella to resume his journey, he found that it had become heavier. He felt that the Goddess must have listened to his prayers and come with him on his umbrella. So, he kept the umbrella on the more southern side of his house. He built a sanctum there and started worshipping the goddess. From a stone with writings on it, it has been found that this happened in 757 Kollavarsham, the Malayalam era. The local people also cooperated in building a temple as there were no devi temples nearby. As the idol at Kodungaloor is Darubimbam, (an idol made from the wood of the jackfruit tree ) here also a similar idol was consecrated. The Goddess was consecrated in the mild form. A smaller stone idol was consecrated in front of it for conducting ablutions. Chanthattam and ablution with gingelly oil are performed for the upkeep of the Darushilpam. When the temple became famous, Kavalapara Nair, the local feudal lord wanted to have control over the temple. However the local people and the Namboothiris who were managing the temple did not agree to it.  So Kavalapara Nair ordered that those who were under him should not visit this temple. Legend says that all the members of the Kavlapara Nair family were affected by smallpox immediately after this order had been issued. Astrological consultations pointed to the displeasure of the goddess and appropriate offerings were made by the Nair family. The oracle in a frenzy, went to the Nair family on the day the offerings were to conclude and blessed them and all of them recovered. They came to the temple and the local people also accepted the supremacy of Mooppil Nair. A Nilapatuthara was constructed for the Mooppil Nair to sit when he visited the temple. He dedicated a major part of the land under him as belonging to the Goddess. Another legend speaks of a beggar who came to the temple and lived on the food offered there. Once some of the ornaments of the Goddess were missing and it was assumed that this beggar must have taken them. The local people started beating him to make him confess. But he did not admit to having taken the jewels. As he ran to escape from the tormentors, he banged his head on the southern wall of the Pattukottil calling the goddess loudly. The wall broke and he ran out through that. He could not be traced after that. The broken wall was covered with a door. Generally, Devi temples do not have a door to the south from the Pattukottil. As this happened on the day of Makara Chowa, no celebrations are conducted for that day in this temple.
