An enclosure boundary wall, thirteen stone hut circles and a round cairn on Nattor Down and Hamlyn's Newtake is a Bronze Age settlement complex located on moorland in Devon. The monument comprises a substantial boundary wall which encloses an area containing multiple stone-built domestic structures arranged as hut circles, typical of upland settlement patterns from the Bronze Age period. The associated round cairn represents funerary practice contemporary with the domestic occupation. The site demonstrates the systematic occupation and management of marginal upland terrain during the Bronze Age, with the boundary wall suggesting organised pastoral or mixed subsistence activities within a defined territorial space.
