The previously unknown site, which covers 0.4 hectares (0.99 acres),^[2] was uncovered during excavations in 2013 prior to the building of 500 new houses by Bloor Homes.^[3]

The stone foundations, which are covered in decorated tiles are laid out around courtyards. The remains of roof slates and glazed ceramic roof tiles have also been found.^[4] The floor tiles are similar to those at Glastonbury Abbey, while the pottery finds have been dated to between the 12th and 14th centuries.^[2]
