relics of feudalism
Serfs
Peasants, often referred to as serfs, had several obligations to the lord of the manor, primarily involving labor and payments. They were required to work a certain number of days each week on the lord's lands, known as "weekwork," in addition to tending to their own fields. Peasants also owed rent for the land they farmed and were expected to pay various fees for services such as milling grain or using communal resources. Overall, their obligations were a critical part of the feudal system, reinforcing the lord's authority and the peasant's dependence.

In a manor, the bailiff acted as the steward or manager of the estate, responsible for overseeing the day-to-day operations. This included collecting rents, managing the agricultural output, and ensuring that the manor's tenants adhered to their obligations. The bailiff also often supervised laborers and resolved minor disputes among tenants, serving as a key intermediary between the lord of the manor and the peasant population. Essentially, the bailiff ensured the efficient functioning of the manor's economy and administration.
The manor house was the home of the lord of the manor. Peasant children did not get much opportunity to go into the manor house.
