Hut circle NE of Thornworthy Lodge is a Bronze Age settlement site located on Dartmoor in Devon. The monument comprises a circular or sub-circular earthwork representing the remains of a prehistoric dwelling, typical of the domestic structures found across Dartmoor during the Bronze Age period. Such hut circles, formed by stone-built or turf-built circular houses with associated boundary banks and clearance cairns, represent important evidence for settlement patterns and land use during the second millennium BCE. The site contributes to the archaeological record of Bronze Age communities on the moor and their adaptation to the upland landscape.
