Unenclosed stone hut settlement south-west of Gutter Tor is a Bronze Age or Iron Age settlement situated on Dartmoor in Devon. The site comprises a scattered group of stone-built roundhouses lacking any associated field boundaries or defensive earthworks, typical of upland pastoral communities of the later prehistoric period. Such unenclosed settlements are characteristic of moorland occupation patterns, where dispersed domestic structures served pastoral economies adapted to the open terrain. The monument remains visible as surface stone foundations, providing evidence of sustained occupation strategies on Dartmoor during the Bronze Age or Iron Age periods.
