Two concentric stone circles on Langstone Moor is a Bronze Age ceremonial monument located on Langstone Moor in Devon. The site consists of two roughly circular arrangements of standing stones, with the inner circle positioned within the outer circle, a configuration that reflects ritual practices common to the later Bronze Age period. The monument's precise dating and original function remain subjects of archaeological study, though such concentric arrangements are typically associated with gatherings or ceremonial activities undertaken during the second millennium BCE. The site represents an important example of Devon's Bronze Age stone circle heritage and contributes to understanding prehistoric settlement patterns and ritual behaviour in south-western Britain.
