Two lengths of reave, two stone hut circles, a round cairn and stone alignment on Walkhampton Common is a Bronze Age settlement and land management complex situated on Walkhampton Common in Devon. The site comprises multiple archaeological features including prehistoric field boundaries (reaves), domestic structures represented by hut circles, and a round cairn, which together demonstrate the organisation of settlement and agriculture during the Bronze Age period. The reaves represent early systems of landscape division and territorial management characteristic of Dartmoor's Bronze Age economy. The assemblage of features on the common illustrates the range of activities—residential, funerary, and agricultural—undertaken at this upland location during the Bronze Age.
