In this video we look at Medieval Houses briefly and explain what they were like and also how they changed over time. Previously we've looked at Medieval Castles, Forts and Palaces however where did the lower-class people live, and what were their houses like? Well originally Anglo-Saxon homes were extremely basic and we show you some images of these. In Britain none of these are still standing, purely due to the fact they were made from wood and didn't survive exposure to the elements and fire. However as time progressed, and with the Black Death arrived in Britain, Peasants were now able to earn more money. Because of the sheer amount of Peasants that the Black Death had killed, many landowners needed them to work on their land and fields. So they began to earn more money and spend some of this on housing, improving their homes.

Finally we look at Tudor housing, and some of this is remarkable and spectacular and you can still see these buildings today. The Tudor homes look ornate and are rather grand and beautiful. However today, join us as we look at 'What were medieval houses like?'
