http://www.castlewales.com/alberbury.html
In the middles ages it was known as 'New Abbey' or 'Black Abbey' (after the monks habits). In more recent times it is known as 'White Abbey' due to the colour of the stone and is now a farm. According to a channel 4 website, there is a holy relic buried here, possibly with the baron and his wife, see
