Four stone hut circles and a cairnfield 400m south-east of Wedlake Farm forming part of the settlement on the north-west slope of Roos Tor is a Bronze Age settlement located in Devon, England. The site comprises domestic structures in the form of circular stone-built dwellings typical of upland settlement in the south-western peninsula during the second millennium before Christ, accompanied by burial cairns which reflect the funerary practices contemporary with occupation. The hut circles and associated cairnfield represent a coherent settlement pattern characteristic of Bronze Age exploitation of Dartmoor's marginal upland zones, where communities established permanent or semi-permanent habitation supported by stock-raising and limited cultivation.
