Overview

History & significance

An enclosure, stone hut circle, rectangular building and V-shaped gully 410m east of Trowlesworthy Warren House is a Bronze Age settlement complex located on Dartmoor in Devon.

The enclosure itself represents a defined spatial organisation characteristic of later Bronze Age communities on Dartmoor, where such settlements demonstrate evidence of pastoral and possibly mixed subsistence economies.
