Enclosure and hut circles on Erme Plains E of River Erme is a Bronze Age settlement site located in Devon, England. The monument comprises the remains of prehistoric domestic structures and associated enclosed areas, representing evidence of early agrarian communities that occupied Dartmoor's marginal lands during the Bronze Age period. The hut circles and enclosure earthworks are characteristic of the dispersed settlement patterns found across the south-western uplands, where Bronze Age communities exploited both pastoral and arable resources. These remains contribute to the archaeological understanding of prehistoric settlement distribution and land-use practices across the Erme valley landscape.
