I am not sure how much but they would have been paid in pennies which is 4 pennies to £1 I believe
I would suggest around 1,000 pennies when they were made out of wood and around 2,000 pennies when they were made out of stone
you will also need to take into consideration how many acres of land the castle you are talking about THey would be between 1-3 acres so obviously the bigger the castle the more expensive
