Partially enclosed stone hut circle settlement 290m north west of Lints Tor is a Bronze Age settlement situated on the upland moorland of Devon. The site comprises the remains of stone-built circular dwellings characteristic of prehistoric moorland occupation in the south-west peninsula, with partial defensive or boundary enclosure indicating organised settlement planning during the Bronze Age period. The hut circles represent domestic structures of the type commonly found across Dartmoor and Bodmin Moor, reflecting the pattern of dispersed pastoral and agricultural communities that inhabited these highlands in the second millennium BCE. The partial enclosure suggests the occupants maintained a degree of control over their immediate settlement space, distinguishing this site from wholly unenclosed contemporary settlements.
