Manorial System
River
Food could be aqquired by means of the river.
Servants could bathe in it, and the water was useful for crops.
Church
Many people worshipped at the church.
All were seen as equals according to the god.
A law was created known as the ''cannon law''
Priests administered the sacrements.
Forest
Many humans needs were fufilled at the forest.
Trees could provide shade or work as hiding places.
The lord would always go on hunting trips.
This was due to the large variety of animals at the forest.
Wood was another provision of the forest.
Cooking and house creation were the purposes of it.
Serf's Cottages
The house of any other peasant looked no different from these cottages.
There was shrubbery on the floor, and there were thatched roofs.
There were only 1/2 rooms for the whole family.
The windows were tiny slits in the walls, and if the serfs were lucky, sometimes there was a wooden shutter to provide protection in winter.
Blacksmith
This title would go to whoever worked with heated metals and iron.
In order to shape it to create armor, horseshoes, and some types of weapons, very hot metal must be handled.
The area where the blacksmith's work would take place is known as a smithy or a forge.
A very large variety of tools was used to shape the molten metal.
The bellow was the most vital tool throughout the smithy.
It was used to blow air into fire, causing the temperature to be even higher than before.
Manor House
This was where the lord lived.
Although partially, this was not completely fortified like a castle was.
The great hall was the primary feature of the Manor House.
The great hall was given the addition of subsidary apartments.
Walls
Moats
Meadow
The meadow was a sort of field.
It mostly had plants of no wood, and grass.
According to agriculture, a grassland that is allowed to grow instead of being eated by livestock is considered a meadow.
Pastures or serving as hayfeilds were the use of tracts of grass.
Fields
This was where the food was cultivated by serfs.
It was likely for manors to have multiple fields.
Wheat would always be the most important crop.
The survival of the crops was a factor in the survival of the serfs, as they were self-sufficient.
Working in the fields was a year-round job.
Storing food was vital in fall.
The lord would collect some of the grains, as they served as ''tax''.
Orchard
Trees are intentionally planted in an orchard.
Food production is the main reason these trees are mantained.
If there are any large gardens, orchards could be a feature of those.
It could also be called a fruit garden, as nuts and fruits were common among the trees.
Walls could enclose these orchards in some manors.
Mill
The mill was the most widespread machine.
Wind or water could create energy.
Flour could be ground, leather could be tanned, clothes could be processed and many other tasks could be completed with the mill.
Investment was initially expensive, but profits were amazing in the long term.
Kights and the church owned mills due to how much money they make.
Oven
Ovens were created from fieplaces with large cauldrons.
Different types of ovens were used for cooking bread.
Well
Water was obtained from this hole.
Everyone in the manor could drink the well's water.
The water was very fresh, so it was extravagant to cook and drink.
