Stone hut circle and field system 580m north west of North Creaber is a Bronze Age settlement comprising a circular stone-built dwelling and associated agricultural fields positioned on Buttern Hill in Devon. The monument forms part of a coaxial field system, a planned landscape arrangement characteristic of later prehistoric land organisation in south-west England. The hut circle represents domestic occupation during the Bronze Age period, whilst the field boundaries demonstrate the systematic division and management of the surrounding terrain for pastoral and arable purposes. This combination of settlement and field infrastructure provides archaeological evidence for the organisation of Bronze Age communities and their relationship with the landscape they inhabited.
