The lord of a village or town would live in a manor house.
Usually, the hearth was in the middle of the great hall.
The manor house was the house for the lord of the manor. Usually the lord lived in a manor house, but lords often had more than one manor, and some lords had many. The result was that sometimes the only people who lived in the manor house were the household servants. If the lord was not living in the manor house, it was usually kept ready for him to stay in if he showed up. There were many cases of manors being rented out, and in such a case, the person who rented it lived in the manor house. This normally happened only if the lord of the manor was short of money.

If you mean Southall Manor House itself, it is post-medieval and dates to around 1587 (the date carved on a window pediment). It is likely that several other manor houses existed during the medieval period, of which no trace remains today. It does not feature in Domesday Book as most of Greater London was not surveyed.
In the medieval era, the lord of the manor oversaw the various farmers in the area. He was the next step above the common man. In addition, the manor house supported one knight, or mounted cavalryman, ready to go to war. Thus, the 6,000 manor houses of England meant the English Army had 6,000 mounted cavalry. It also had foot solders and bowmen.
