The friary's precinct was bordered by the road "Broadmarsh" (now built upon) to the north, and Canal Street to the south.

[1][2] The friary's first buildings were built of wood, with King Henry III (1216–1272) making a series of donations of lumber towards the construction.

Between 1326 and 1327, the King also made donations of timber to enable the friars to construct a quay on the river.

The friary church was quickly rebuilt in stone, with King Henry III also making donations towards the work.

[3] Nothing remains of the friary as the entire site has been occupied by the Broadmarsh Shopping centre that was built in the 1970s.
