Peterborough Cathedral Precincts is a scheduled ancient monument comprising the surviving medieval monastic buildings associated with Peterborough Abbey, one of England's most significant Benedictine foundations. The precinct includes the Table Hall and Infirmary Arcade, both dating from the medieval period and representing the institutional infrastructure that supported the monastic community. The Table Hall served as a refectory or communal dining space, whilst the Infirmary Arcade formed part of the monastic infirmary complex where sick and elderly monks received care. These structures demonstrate the architectural sophistication and planning of a major cathedral monastery, preserving evidence of monastic life from the medieval period through to the dissolution of the abbey in the sixteenth century.
