Warren at Sheeps Tor is an Iron Age or Romano-British enclosed settlement located on Dartmoor in Devon. The site consists of an irregular enclosure defined by a stone bank, positioned at approximately 520 metres north of Chubstone Cottage on the moorland plateau. The monument represents a form of upland settlement typical of the later prehistoric and early Roman periods in the South West, though the precise dating and duration of occupation remain matters for further archaeological investigation. Such enclosed settlements on Dartmoor are understood to reflect pastoral and domestic occupation during a period when the moorland landscape was more extensively utilised than in later periods.
