The East Church, located on the far eastern side of the monastery, is the best preserved of all the churches.
It is considerably smaller than the West Church, measuring 23 by 15 m (75.5 by 49 ft) in size.
It has a basilica design with a tower superimposed over the east section of the nave.
Gough believes that the roof was likely not made of stone, as practically none were found among the rubble of his excavation.
Rather, he suggests that it was likely made of a light timber tiles.

This church is less decorated than the other two because it was only approached from within the monastery complex.
It contains only slight adornments on the entrance.
