Western half of a hut circle shown on the north-east corner of Enclosure 'D' at 'Langstone Moor settlement'.

Feature No. 41 shown on the English Heritage survey of 2003 as a semi-circle of stones at this location may be a hut circle. The feature appears to be more like a bulge in the enclosure wall than a hut. It is also shown to the northwest at SX55617796 where it appears to be a hook-shaped linear feature.
