The unenclosed stone hut circle settlement located 320 metres south east of Higher Tor is a Bronze Age archaeological site situated in Devon. The settlement comprises multiple stone-built circular structures typical of domestic occupation during the later Bronze Age period, representing evidence of pastoral and agricultural communities in upland regions. Such unenclosed hut circle settlements are characteristic of Bronze Age settlement patterns on Dartmoor and surrounding areas, where scattered homesteads formed dispersed communities rather than nucleated villages. The site contributes to understanding of Bronze Age settlement distribution and domestic architecture in south-western England during the second millennium BC.
