The National Monuments Service's description

This record was listed in the SMR (1991) and RMP (1996) as 'Friary'. It relates to an OS mapping error which identifies an 'Abbey (Site of)'. This refers to the establishment of a Franciscan friary in the 13th century which was subsequently transferred to the Dominican friars (MA070-067001-) in 1252-3. In essence, this is a duplicate record.
