Irregular aggregate field system near Dunnabridge Pound Farm
Grid ref: SX 6490 7526
On walking routes: Bellever Trail
This scheduled monument preserves traces of prehistoric settlement on Dartmoor's high ground. The site includes a stone hut circle, the remains of a dwelling from the Bronze Age, and an irregular field system that once divided and managed the surrounding land. Such patterns of habitation and land use are common across Dartmoor and speak to centuries of pastoral activity on the moor.
Today the site sits within open moorland, modest in its physical remains but significant for understanding how people lived and worked on Dartmoor in antiquity. The hut circle and field boundaries are visible to those who know where to look, forming part of a wider archaeological landscape that rewards patient walking and observation.
