ProfessorThey were made of wattle. Wattle is weaving branches together and fill in the spaces with a mix of mud, manure, and straw. This is smeared over the branches sealing it. Often a white wash was put on top of that. These were one room with a fireplace at one end. A door and no windows.

Where did a medieval lord live?
Medieval ladies usually lived in manor houses. Sometimes they lived in castles. Especially in the later part of the Middle Ages, some members of the nobility had town houses in towns or cities, so a few ladies lived in these.
What are townspeople Middle Ages?
Medieval towns people were mostly of two classes. They were either laborers who were technically serfs, but did not live on manorial estates, or they were members of the middle class. Members of both classes worked as servants, weavers, potters, carpenters, smiths, and so on. People in towns usually did not have their own cooking facilities, so there were a lot of people who cooked and sold food, especially bakers. These business were owned by middle class people, but the workers might technically have been serfs. Also, towns had lawyers, apothecaries, jewelers, inn keepers, and clerks. These were middle class people. Members of the nobility tended to live on their estates, which may have included villages, but usually did not include towns. Towns had clergy in them, and some had monasteries with monastic populations.
How would you start an essay on middle ages?
First pick a narrowly defined topic, such as: What houses did serfs live in? What did medieval people eat? What technologies were developed in the Middle Ages? When was the chimney invented, and how did people cook without one? Then do research. Ask questions in Wikianswers. Do not believe the first answer you get, unless it has good links. Follow the links. Wikipedia has a lot of articles, and the following would work for the above (found by following the "see also" links in Wikipedia articles): Wattle and Daub Medieval Cuisine Medieval Technology Communal Oven Chimney Then write. To write, first summarize what you tried to find out, then say what you found out, then draw a conclusion.
