What kind of jobs did people in England have during the 1600s?

Answer 1

In the 1300s, most people were farmers. Other serfs or working people included carters, porters, carpenters' and masons' helpers, fishers, the serf officers of manors, such as reeves, gatekeepers, herdsmen, sailors, miners, people who worked in quarries, servants, and so on.

Contrary to the impression you might get from reading history books, there were always middle class people in the Middle Ages; they just were not particularly numerous in the Early Middle Ages. They included independent bakers, butchers, masons, carpenters, chandlers, armorers, metal workers, independent blacksmiths, workers in fine leather, weavers of fine fabrics, tailors of fine clothes, merchants of all sorts of goods, jewelers, independent scribes, and people who made the prepared meals most townspeople ate.
