The enclosed stone hut circle settlement 540m east of Doe Tor is a Bronze Age settlement located on Dartmoor in Devon, England. The site comprises a cluster of stone-built circular dwellings arranged within an enclosing bank or wall, a characteristic form of prehistoric domestic settlement found across the moorland landscape. Such hut circle settlements represent important evidence for Bronze Age land use and social organisation on Dartmoor, typically dating to between 1500 and 800 BCE.
