What was the pasture used for on a medieval manor?

On a medieval manor, pastures were primarily used for grazing livestock such as sheep, cattle, and pigs. This not only provided meat, milk, and wool for the manor's inhabitants but also contributed to the overall economy through trade. Pastures were essential for maintaining the agricultural balance, as they allowed for the sustainable management of animals, which in turn supported crop production through manure fertilization. Additionally, pastures served as communal land where villagers could graze their own animals, fostering a sense of community within the manor.

Was the Manor house surrounded by a moat in the middle ages?

Many, but by no means all, medieval manor houses had moats. They were commonly used as defense at fortified manor houses, but they were also used at other manor houses for reasons that did not include danger of attack by armed forces. They could, for example, keep animals off a part of the grounds people might wish to keep clean and orderly, such as a nice garden, especially if they did not want to have a fence in view. There was a type of moat for this purpose called a ha-ha (no kidding), though the origins of this might date from after the Middle Ages ended. There are links below.
