The prehistoric irregular field system and enclosures with incorporated stone hut circle and incorporated and adjacent cairns located 558 metres north-west of Showery Tor is a Bronze Age or Iron Age settlement complex situated on Bodmin Moor in Cornwall. The monument comprises a network of irregular field boundaries formed by banks and walls, within which are integrated a stone hut circle and multiple cairns, indicating a pastoral and domestic settlement pattern typical of upland moorland exploitation during the later prehistoric period. The hut circle represents a domestic structure, whilst the cairns may serve ceremonial, commemorative or functional agricultural purposes. The monument's preservation on the moor provides evidence of prehistoric land organisation and settlement activity in this upland landscape.
