The majority of the population slept on the floor on a pile of straw, perhaps with woollen blankets for warmth.
People with more money (wealthy merchants, tradesmen, noblemen and royalty) could afford more furniture, including wooden-framed beds.
The writer Alexander Neckham described a typical baron's bedchamber in around 1180. The side frame was of wood fitted with loops of cord or leather to the wooden head a foot pieces; cord or leather straps supported the layers of thin padded mattresses or coutes and the whole bed could be quickly assembled or taken apart to make more space in the chamber. Bolsters were used instead of pillows and coverlets might be of fur or material embroidered with designs.
Later medieval beds had four tall posts supporting a frame for a curtain to exclude cold winds.
