Medieval villages were settlements big enough to support a church. The population of such a place might typically have been around 200 to 500 people.
A village would often have a baker, a miller (who might also have been the baker), a blacksmith, and other people engaged in crafts, but would not have a market, because having a permanent market required a charter, which would make the village into a town.
