Stone hut circle 610m west of Cawsand Beacon is a Bronze Age domestic structure forming part of an enclosed settlement on Bodmin Moor in Devon. The hut circle represents one of several stone-built dwellings that comprised a nucleated settlement pattern characteristic of the later Bronze Age on the moor, with the enclosing stone walls defining a communal space typical of pastoral communities of this period. The structure itself consists of a roughly circular foundation of dry stone walling that once supported a superstructure of perishable materials, and its position within the larger settlement complex indicates domestic occupation and organisation at a time when Bodmin Moor was intensively utilised for settlement and stock management.
