Usually, cottars farmed, but this was not necessarily the case. They had to pay rent, and they had jobs, but the jobs could include being a potter, weaving, making bricks, tanning leather, or any of a number of other jobs that could be done in a hamlet or village.
A third answer: Cottar is related to the word cottager. It refers to a peasant who hold no land beyond a cottage, its immediate yard, and a small plot of garden land (half and acre to an acre) adjoining it called a croft. Cottagers could be either free or serf, the main difference being that the serf cottagers would owe a certain amount of labor to the lord the manor. The amount of produce available from the cottars own holdings were generally insufficient to support a family, so cottars would work as hired laborers and also practice basic crafts such as brewing and spinning to supplement their income.

A cottar was very like a serf, who worked on the land in exchange for a place to live, food, and protection. In ancient times, a distinction was drawn between the two, but it is unclear today what the distinction was. In some places, cottars were freemen, and it may be that the distinction between a cottar and a serf was that the cottar was not bound to the land, and could leave, if he wished, to go somewhere else.

The medieval cottar is believed to have been a simple serf, who lived by farming and who had limited lands to farm and no special office. The role of the cottar was to grow food. The word cottage originally meant the home of a cottar.
