Romano-British village of 8-10 houses, with their own internal courtyard. 110 recorded courtyard houses on the Land's End peninsula and Isles of Scilly. They are unique within the range of Romano-British settlement types.
The Chysauster settlement, together with a fogou, round cairn and part of a prehistoric field system, represents the largest and best preserved example of this rare type of settlement.
