Standon Down Settlement, Mary Tavy, Dartmoor National Park
In his book 'The Field Archaeology of Dartmoor', Phil Newman writes:
'Some hut settlements [on Dartmoor] are unenclosed, but have connecting walls between individual huts. This is a different approach to the arrangements of space around the houses, and shows no apparent need for an outer enclosure. Standon Hill, a settlement on the western side of Dartmoor above the Tavy Valley, and one of the largest hut settlements, has such an arrangement.'
