Question 50

On a manor, what was the land farmed directly for the lord's own benefit called?

  1. The common
  2. The glebe
  3. The demesneBonne réponse
  4. The open fields

Explication

This was the portion whose whole crop went to the lord's household, worked partly by his own servants and partly by the labour his tenants owed him. The land set aside to support the parish priest is the sharpest distractor, because both lie apart from the peasants' own strips, but that ground belonged to the church of the parish rather than to the lord of the estate.
