Stone hut circle 530m ESE of Nodden Gate is a Bronze Age domestic settlement feature forming part of a larger nucleated settlement cluster in Devon. The monument comprises the remains of a circular stone structure typical of upland pastoral communities of the second millennium BC, constructed from dry stone walling to provide shelter for inhabitants engaged in livestock herding. As an outlying element within the wider settlement pattern, it contributes to understanding of Bronze Age settlement organisation and land use in the upland regions of south-west England. The site's preservation within the moorland landscape has allowed archaeological recording and scheduled monument protection to maintain its evidential value for later study.
