During this time it was called the Middle Ages or Medieval Period. You're probably wondering, what was like on the manor. Every manor was self-sufficient. Since they were "self-sufficient," food and clothing would be made on the manor. Serfs couldn't get married or leave the town without letting the noble know. Lords traveled to different manors during the year. Serfs were tied to the manor, but they weren't slaves because they could buy a piece of land and then they would become a free peasant. Manors were usually owned by lords or nobles. houses belonged to the people in the highest class. Peasants who lived on the manor lived in dab houses. Peasants had no freedom no matter what.
Noblewomen had little freedom. They went to other families of nobles for training, just like men. She performed tasks for people that are hurt if necessary. She made the decisions when her husband was not home fighting. When she did this, she was called lord of the manor. The job that peasants had were farming the fields they had. If they wanted to cook food, they would set a fire to cook. The things that peasants slept on were different from our mattresses today. Ours have springs and cotton. Instead, peasants beds were filled with straw and with no springs. Knights protected the land and would receive honor for protecting.
