A rectangular building 750m south east of Legis Tor is a Bronze Age or Iron Age structure located on Dartmoor in Devon. The monument consists of the remains of a rectangular stone-built dwelling, characteristic of settlement activity in the upland areas of Dartmoor during the later prehistoric period. The building's alignment and construction technique reflect the domestic architecture typical of Bronze Age communities established on the moor, where such structures formed part of wider settlement complexes. The site contributes to understanding patterns of prehistoric settlement and land-use in this landscape, though its precise dating and full functional context require further archaeological investigation.
