The Agglomerate enclosure and ten stone hut circles 500m west of Cawsand Beacon is a Bronze Age or Iron Age settlement complex located on Bodmin Moor in Devon. The site comprises a substantial enclosure constructed from local agglomerate stone, within or adjacent to which ten circular stone-built structures are arranged, representing domestic dwellings typical of prehistoric moorland settlement patterns. The hut circles, built from dry stone, show evidence of the construction techniques employed by Bronze Age and early Iron Age communities for permanent or semi-permanent occupation. This monument type is characteristic of upland settlement in southwestern Britain and contributes to understanding prehistoric land use and social organisation on Bodmin Moor.
