Two stone hut circles 450m SSE of Ger Tor is a Bronze Age settlement site located in Devon. The monuments consist of two substantial circular structures constructed from stone, characteristic of domestic occupation during the later Bronze Age period, approximately 1500 to 700 BC. Such hut circles typically functioned as permanent or semi-permanent dwellings and are commonly found across the moorland regions of south-west England, where they represent evidence of organised pastoral and agrarian communities. The site's location on elevated moorland, away from lower-lying arable lands, suggests its inhabitants relied principally on stock-rearing and upland resource exploitation during the Bronze Age.
