Partially enclosed stone hut circle settlement 650m south east of Tawcroft is a Bronze Age settlement located on Dartmoor in Devon. The site comprises the remains of stone-built circular domestic structures typical of upland settlement patterns during the later Bronze Age, when such communities occupied the higher moorland areas of south-west England. The partial enclosure suggests a degree of spatial organisation and defensive or stock-control function characteristic of later prehistoric settlement clusters. The monument represents important evidence of prehistoric land use and settlement organisation on Dartmoor during a period of significant climatic and social change.
