Stone hut circle 430m NNE of Hart Tor is a Bronze Age domestic structure forming part of an unenclosed settlement on Dartmoor in Devon. The monument comprises the remains of a circular stone-built dwelling, characteristic of upland settlement patterns during the Bronze Age, when dispersed pastoral communities occupied the higher moorland areas. This hut circle is situated within a wider settlement complex that lacks formal boundary features, suggesting a flexible approach to spatial organisation typical of Bronze Age moorland communities. The site contributes valuable evidence for understanding prehistoric settlement density and subsistence strategies on Dartmoor during the second millennium BC.
