What did england look like in 1060?

Answer 1

Most people in England in 1060 lived in the country and lived by farming, or in small communities. Slavery was still common. Protectors were common, and most people could not imagine living without one; every village had a local lord who offered protection for his neighborhood, but there were limits on the lord's powers. Farming had advanced by 1060, allowing more people to live in towns. The church played an important role, and Monasteries provided alms for the poor and care for the sick and elderly. Towns were homes to craftsmen, tradesmen, wealthy merchants etc.
