Two stone hut circles 810m west of Siward's or Nun's Cross is part of an unenclosed stone hut circle settlement situated on Dartmoor in Devon. These structures are prehistoric in date, belonging to the Bronze Age period when such circular dwellings were constructed across the moorland landscape. The hut circles are formed of stone foundations and represent domestic settlement in the upland regions of Devon during the second millennium BC. As components of a larger unenclosed settlement pattern, they provide evidence of Bronze Age land use and social organisation on Dartmoor, contributing to the archaeological understanding of prehistoric communities in South West England.
