Stone hut circle 130m east of Leeden Tor is a prehistoric domestic structure forming part of a Bronze Age settlement on Dartmoor in Devon. The monument consists of the remains of a circular stone-built dwelling, characteristic of the later Bronze Age period when such hut circles became the dominant settlement form across the moorland landscape. The site preserves evidence of domestic occupation through its surviving stone foundations and associated features within the broader settlement complex. As part of a hut circle settlement cluster, the structure contributes to archaeological understanding of Bronze Age settlement patterns and land use on Dartmoor during the second millennium before the present era.
