Two stone hut circles and a length of boundary walling 250m west of Rippon Tor is a Bronze Age settlement site located on Dartmoor in Devon. The monument comprises the remains of two circular stone-built structures typical of domestic occupation during the Bronze Age, accompanied by associated field or settlement boundary walling that survives to a considerable length. The hut circles represent evidence of permanent or semi-permanent habitation on the moorland during the later Bronze Age period, when such settlements were established across Dartmoor's upland landscape. The boundary walling indicates an ordered landscape divided for pastoral or agricultural use, reflecting the organisation and land management practices of Bronze Age communities in this region.
