A tithe was a tenth part of what a person produced (the words are related). A farmer would give a tenth part of his crop to the church, and a craftsman a tenth part of his annual production. The church stored the tithes of the people in tithe barns. From this point some part was sold to support the church and clergy, some was stored against famine, some was distributed to the poor, and some was sent to the diocese or other organizations.

The tithe was not a voluntary contribution to the church during the middle ages. It was a tax on agricultural production in which one tenth of a crop would be separated and handed over to the church. In theory this went for the support of village priests, the construction and maintenance of church buildings, and aid to the poor, as well as the general expenses of various church organizational such as priories and monasteries. Supervisors would be in the fields of the various manors during harvest. The tithe would actually be separated in the field, with every 10th sheaf of grain being set aside and then carried to storage buildings known as Tithe barns. Stories of attempts to conceal grain or otherwise defraud the process are legion, but legal charges could be brought against someone taking the tithe grain for themselves, as they were essentially stealing.
