Enclosed settlement 280m south-west of the Ordnance Survey triangulation pillar on Cox Tor is a prehistoric archaeological site located on Dartmoor in Devon. The settlement comprises an enclosed area defined by earthwork boundaries, typical of Bronze Age and Iron Age settlement patterns in the south-west. The site's position on Cox Tor, within the upland landscape of Dartmoor, reflects the prehistoric utilisation of moorland areas for domestic occupation and pastoral activity. The precise dating and detailed character of the enclosure remain subjects for further archaeological investigation, though its form and moorland context place it within the broader tradition of prehistoric settlement on Dartmoor.
