To handle the Windleton Manor and it's venues, the Manor Orchard, the Manor Fields, and the Rose Garden, it takes a lot of workers. While they are unmarried, they live in the Farm Worker's Dorm.
When they marry, they can get a little cottage to live in. The Lucas family has one, and the old nannies in Williamson's Cottage, and just recently these also got inhabitants:
The Cottages are more comfortable than the miners' shacks, and Sir Patrick makes a pride, as he put it, to take good care of his workers. Nevertheless, one of his farm workers, Jeremy Jones, died of pneumonia the third spring.
The surface maybe pretty with orchards and flourishing fields.. but the work is hard and the workers start early and work til late, for a meagre pay.
