Stone hut circle 510m NNE of Hart Tor is a Bronze Age domestic structure forming part of an unenclosed settlement in Devon. The monument consists of a circular or sub-circular stone foundation characteristic of prehistoric upland occupation, typical of the second millennium BC settlement pattern in southwestern England. Located within a wider landscape of contemporary hut circles and field systems, it reflects the dispersed pastoral economy and settlement practices of Bronze Age communities. The structure's inclusion within the unenclosed settlement demonstrates the non-defensive, open character of many Bronze Age Devonian communities in contrast to later Iron Age fortified settlements.
