Two stone hut circles 570m south west of Down Tor is a Bronze Age settlement site located on Dartmoor in Devon. The hut circles represent domestic structures typical of the second millennium BCE, when upland areas of Dartmoor were exploited for pastoral and agricultural purposes. The stone-built circular dwellings, constructed from the granite locally available on the moor, provide evidence of sustained settlement patterns during the prehistoric period. These remains contribute to understanding Bronze Age land-use and habitation practices on Dartmoor's high ground.
