Nearby or nearly

I have to form a word with near that fits the sentence. I think that it might be nearby or nearly, but I'm not sure.

Here's the sentence:
The oldest house in the UK, which was found with other fascinating relics (.........) at a site in Yorkshire.

) at a site in Yorkshire. You can't make a sentence out of that without a verb, and neither 'nearby' nor 'nearly' are verbs. The oldest house in the UK, which was found with other fascinating relics , ( is located ) at a site in Yorkshire.

  • ) at a site in Yorkshire.
  • You can't make a sentence out of that without a verb, and neither 'nearby' nor 'nearly' are verbs.
  • The oldest house in the UK, which was found with other fascinating relics , ( is located ) at a site in Yorkshire.
  • If you can find a verb related to 'near' that fits where I've written "is located", you've got the answer.
  • However, I don't think it can be done.
