The precise dating and functional interpretation of the site remain subjects for archaeological investigation, though its form is consistent with defensive or domestic enclosures of the later prehistoric period. The earthwork survives as a landscape feature of archaeological significance contributing to understanding of settlement distributions across Dartmoor and its margins.
