Stone hut circle 390m south west of Yellowmeade Farm is a Bronze Age domestic settlement site located on Dartmoor in Devon. The monument comprises a circular stone foundation representing the remains of a prehistoric dwelling, characteristic of the numerous hut circles distributed across Dartmoor that date to the second millennium before Christ. Such structures typically measured between four and eight metres in diameter and would have been roofed with organic materials, serving as permanent or semi-permanent habitations for Bronze Age communities engaged in pastoral and subsistence agriculture. The preservation of stone foundations in this exposed moorland location provides valuable evidence for settlement patterns, building practices, and land use during the Bronze Age period in south-western England.
