Thanks for the help guys, I now have a 'backup.zip' file on my desktop. How do I recover the site on a new domain?

I use the BackWPUp plugin and save to Dropbox. It allows you select exactly what you want to backup. However, it only works "manually" on WA hosting, you have to initiate a backup, the scheduling feature won't work. There's training on it here: https://my.wealthyaffiliate.com/training/backup-wordpress-to-dropbox-tutorial :) Rich.

You can use UpdraftPlus plugin to backup and restore files and database.
