The Prehistoric unenclosed hut circle settlement and associated field system at Little Wood is a Bronze Age or Iron Age settlement site located in Yorkshire. The monument comprises multiple hut circles, the characteristic circular or sub-circular structural remains of prehistoric domestic dwellings, together with field boundaries and associated agricultural infrastructure that document the landscape organisation of the period. The settlement's unenclosed character distinguishes it from more formally defended or monumentalised contemporary sites, suggesting a community engaged in pastoral and arable farming without formal fortification. The surviving archaeological features provide evidence for domestic and subsistence practices during the later prehistoric period in northern England.
