Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The manorial system has 3 different classes of land including

Demesne, the part directly controlled by the lord and used for the benefit of his household and dependents.

Dependent (serf or villein) holdings carrying the obligation that the peasant household supply the lord with specified labor services or a part of its output

and finally Free peasant land, without such obligation but otherwise subject to manorial jurisdiction and custom, and owing money rent fixed at the time of the lease.

in each manor they had a village whose inhabitants worked that land, and a manor house where the lord who owned or controlled the estate lived. Manors also had woods, orchards, gardens, and ponds or lakes where fish could be found.
