This is the site of the only working mill on Anglesey. It also was chosen to be the site for a reconstruction of an Iron Age Settlement. The settlement consists of two Round houses Animal Pens and Enclosures. One Round House is as it would have been in the Iron Age, the other looks like an on site classroom, both are about 10 metres in diameter. A lot of research went into the project, and it was built by local students. You can also visit the Mill, Gift shop and Cafe.

Open between Easter and late September, there is an admission charge.

Well executed site with the settlement holding a great deal of interest. The immediate area also includes a labyrinth designed by local school children and a young woodland.
