The unenclosed stone hut circle settlement on the western edge of Lee Moor is a Bronze Age settlement comprising multiple domestic structures constructed from stone. Located on the moorland of Devon, the site consists of several circular or oval stone foundations representing the remains of prehistoric dwellings, typical of the upland settlement patterns established during the Bronze Age in south-west England. The unenclosed character of the settlement, with hut circles distributed across the landscape without surrounding defensive or boundary walls, reflects the pastoral and agricultural economy of Bronze Age moorland communities. The site contributes significantly to understanding Bronze Age domestic settlement and land use patterns in Devon's upland regions.
