Stone hut circle 130m south east of the Ordnance Survey triangulation pillar on Cox Tor is a prehistoric domestic structure located on Dartmoor in Devon. The monument comprises the remains of a circular stone-built dwelling, characteristic of Bronze Age settlement patterns on the moorland, dating to the second millennium before the present era. Such hut circles represent evidence of permanent or semi-permanent occupation during the Bronze Age, when Dartmoor supported scattered pastoral communities. The structure's position on Cox Tor reflects the Bronze Age preference for settlement on higher ground with access to moorland resources and grazing lands.
