Yeomen traditionally refer to small landowners or farmers in England, particularly during the medieval and early modern periods. They were often freeholders who worked their own land and were part of the emerging middle class, distinct from both the nobility and the peasantry. The term can also denote individuals who performed specific roles, such as a yeoman warder (a ceremonial guardian of the Tower of London) or a yeoman of the guard. Overall, yeomen played a significant role in the social and economic development of rural England.
