Stone hut circle 315m north-east of Sharpitor is a Bronze Age domestic structure forming part of a prehistoric settlement on Dartmoor in Devon. The monument consists of the remains of a circular stone-built dwelling, characteristic of upland settlement patterns in south-west England during the Bronze Age period. The hut circle forms one element within a wider landscape of such structures, indicative of sustained occupation and land use in this moorland environment. The settlement remains represent important evidence for prehistoric domestic organisation and the exploitation of marginal upland terrain during the second millennium BC.
