Speaking to North Wales Live, he said: "We're still investigating and recording the remains of the
roundhouse but considering its size and build quality it may have been home to an important figure in the community.
An Iron Age
roundhouse around 13 metres in diameter - one of the largest stone
roundhouses we have seen - has been unearthed in one of the trenches closest to the eroding cliff edge.
Already the 15 vertical posts of the
roundhouse have been erected, with the horizontal wall plates lifted to form the framework of the house.

The individuals involved are believed to have then returned to the park on August 28 and damaged the remaining materials, including the seating and panels of the
roundhouse.
Aerial photographs of trenches dug by archaeologists on Balderstone Hall Fields, off Wellhouse Lane, appear to show iron age roads and a circular anomaly that could be evidence of an ancient
roundhouse dating back 2,000 years.
Initially constructed as a turntable engine shed in 1846, the
Roundhouse transformed into a legendary concert venue in the late '60s with over a decade of performances by the Rolling Stones, The Beatles, Jimi Hendrix, and more.
The funding will enable the Canal & River Trust and National Trust to turn the Grade II*-listed
Roundhouse, in Sheepcote Street, into a base from which to explore Birmingham's canal network.
THE National Trust is hoping a series of walking, cycling and boating tours will breathe new life into Birmingham's historic
Roundhouse building.
