As described by motichand (1985) earlier this ghat was part of Dashashwamedh Ghat and was known as Ghodha Ghat till 1984. Ghodaghat was first described by Motichandra in 1931 AD. As per views of Kashiprashad Jaiswal, in 2nd century a horse statue was established by Bharshivas after Dashashwamedha Yajna. In 18-19 century export and import of horses by boat took place from this ghat.
