Stone hut circle 460m south east of Penn Beacon
Devon
This stone hut circle, a scheduled monument, dates to the Bronze Age when scattered communities lived and worked across Dartmoor's high ground. The circular stone foundations are what remain of a dwelling from this period, part of a broader pattern of prehistoric settlement visible across the moor today.
Visitors will find the site on open moorland, a simple but evocative trace of ancient life. It sits within Dartmoor's rich archaeological landscape, where Bronze Age hut circles, field systems and cairns tell the story of how people adapted to and shaped this high, exposed environment over thousands of years.
