The prehistoric settlement at Stanlake lies within the historic fields belonging to the farm of the same name. The settlement lies on a south facing slope at an altitude of between 310m and 335m and overlooks the River Meavy. Despite its situation within later fields, the settlement is well preserved and a particularly informative group of earthworks and other structures remain essentially intact, although some have been altered and adapted during the historic period. The report is primarily concerned with the prehistoric settlement, although the surviving historic archaeology is also of considerable interest and is also examined.
