The Codex Amiatinus, described by White as the 'finest book in the world', was created at the monastery and was likely worked on by Bede, who was born at Wearmouth in 673. This is one of the oldest monasteries still standing in England. While at the monastery, Bede completed the "Historia ecclesiastica gentis Anglorum" "(The Ecclesiastical History of the English People)" in 731, a feat which earned him the title "The father of English history."
