Stone hut circle 570m ENE of Merrivale Bridge is a Bronze Age settlement component located on Dartmoor in Devon. The site forms part of a partially enclosed stone hut circle settlement, a characteristic form of prehistoric domestic occupation dating to the second millennium BC. The hut circles are defined by low stone walls and represent the remains of roundhouses that would have been roofed with organic materials. Such settlements are indicative of permanent or semi-permanent occupation during the Bronze Age, reflecting pastoral and agricultural economies that flourished on Dartmoor during this period.
