Stone hut circle 430m NNE of Hart Tor is a prehistoric domestic structure forming part of an unenclosed settlement of similar dwellings on Dartmoor in Devon. The hut circle dates to the Bronze Age, representing a period of moorland occupation and settlement that characterises the upland archaeology of south-west England. The monument consists of the remains of a stone-built circular dwelling, typical of Bronze Age domestic architecture on Dartmoor, where communities established semi-permanent or seasonal settlements exploiting the moorland environment. As part of a wider hut circle settlement, it provides evidence for Bronze Age social organisation and land use on the high moors of Devon.
