Antiquities

Enclosure, two stone hut circles and an alignment of upright stones 780m north west of Little Links Tor

Devon

This scheduled monument represents a Bronze Age or Iron Age settlement on Dartmoor's high moorland. The site comprises two stone hut circles, the remains of a stone-built enclosure, and an alignment of upright stones that may have marked boundaries or held ceremonial significance. These elements together suggest a period of occupation and land use when this exposed landscape supported pastoral communities.

Today the site lies on open moor, scattered across the rolling terrain. The stone circles and upright stones are visible to those who know where to look, weathered by centuries but still legible to the landscape. The site offers insight into how Dartmoor's Bronze Age inhabitants structured their settlement and marked their territory among the tors and grassland.
