This scheduled monument preserves part of a substantial prehistoric enclosure, marked by a length of surviving boundary wall and seven stone hut circles. The site sits on open moorland north-east of Ger Tor, in country typical of Dartmoor's higher ground. The hut circles and their surrounding wall suggest a Bronze Age community, though the moor's long occupation means later use cannot be ruled out.
Today the site appears as low stone foundations and ruined walls scattered across the moorland. For walkers exploring this part of Dartmoor, these remains offer a tangible connection to the people who lived and worked here thousands of years ago, adapting to the moor's demands and shaping its landscape.
