The manorial system provided people who lived on the manor with homes, jobs, and security. The serfs worked the land, providing some of their labor or part of the crop to the lord, who also might have lived on the manor. In later times, they were likely to sell part of the crop and pay rent with money. The were considered bound to the soil, and this was a two way attachment. They were not allowed to move off the manor without permission of the landlord, but the landlord was similarly not permitted to make them move away. In time, serfs moved away to towns and cities, but they gave up the homes and security they had on the manor when they did so, and this meant it was not an entirely liberating experience.

The building known as Treneere Manor is not medieval, although it may stand on the site of a former medieval manor house. Treneere is not listed in Domesday Book, so it was not even a village at that time. In fact Treneere Manor was not built until the 18th century. In 1913 Treneere Manor was home to a Mr Polglase, who sold some of his land to be developed as a Girl's Grammar School.

What was a manor in the middle ages?
A manor was a piece of land where people could farm, grow food, and live. It was owned by a person who was called its lord, and who was a member of the nobility or gentry. It had cottages for the farmers, and the farmers lived there. The cottages were usually organized into a hamlet or village. In some parts of Europe, there might have been longhouses instead of cottages, and a number of families would live together in the longhouse. The land was divided into a part that was for the lord, a part that was communal, and small plots for each serf family. The peasants on the manor worked on all three. The work the peasants did on the lord's land was considered part or all of their rent. They could also pay rent by providing a part of the crop, or by paying money. The peasant farmers were usually serfs, and were not free to leave the manor, but they had their own plots of land and could choose what to grow there themselves and keep at least most of what they raised. There was a manor house for a lord to live in, though there were always lords who had more than one manor, and so the lord might have been absent at least part of the time. The manor house could be fortified, and if it was looked rather like a castle. I read of manors possibly having castles on the, but I am not sure whether that is strictly true or whether some term is being used loosely. There were barns and stables, workshops and other buildings. A manor often had a mill. There was nearly always one or more sources of water. Often there was a church. The presence of the church was the thing that distinguished a village from a hamlet. Sometimes there were multiple hamlets or both a hamlet and a village. There are links below.

How was land divided on manors?
AnswerLanded wasn't really divided on manors. There were areas for crops, herds, living, and hunting. It all belonged to the lord of the manor who in turn used it with permission of the king. AnswerThe land on a manor was divided into three classes, as follows: Demesne, which was the land a lord reserved for his own use. This could be for such purposes as hunting, or for gardens, or for other purposes, as he saw fit.Dependent holdings, which were farmed by the serfs, communally or singly, in exchange for a part of the crops or serviceFree peasant land, on which a peasant typically paid rentThere was church land on many manors, and this technically belonged to the lord, and I suppose it was part of the demesne. Also there were villages on the land of some manors, and I do not know for certain what the status of this land was, but have always assumed it twas part of the free peasant land. Of course there was a lot of variation in all of this.There is a link below to an article on Manorialism, to the section on land use and other features.
