The enclosed stone hut circle settlement, three round cairns and a length of reave 650m WSW of Ger Tor is a Bronze Age monument complex located on Dartmoor in Devon. The site comprises a defended settlement featuring stone-built circular dwellings associated with contemporary funerary monuments and field systems characteristic of the later Bronze Age period. The reave represents a substantial boundary or land division system typical of Bronze Age landscape organisation on the moor, whilst the round cairns served ceremonial and burial functions. Together these elements form an important archaeological record of Bronze Age settlement patterns and territorial management on Dartmoor.
