"St Benet's Abbey" is a historical and archaeological study of the medieval monastery of St Benet's at Hulme in Norfolk, England, authored by William Leslie Rackham. The book provides an in-depth examination of the abbey's history, architecture, and the daily life of its inhabitants, from its foundation in the Anglo-Saxon period through to its dissolution in the 16th century during the reign of Henry VIII. Rackham's work is notable for its meticulous research and use of primary sources, including charters, architectural remains, and contemporary accounts, to reconstruct the story of St Benet's Abbey and its significance within the broader context of English monasticism.

The book is often cited by historians and archaeologists for its contributions to the understanding of the social, economic, and religious aspects of monastic life, as well as for its detailed descriptions of the abbey's physical layout and its changes over time. Rackham's scholarship sheds light on the interactions between the monastery and the local community, as well as the abbey's role in the wider political and ecclesiastical landscape of medieval England.

"St Benet's Abbey" is considered an important resource for students of medieval history and architecture, as well as for visitors and enthusiasts of Norfolk's heritage. The work stands as a testament to the enduring fascination with monastic institutions and their impact on British history and culture.
