17th Century England homes

    The the people that had the most money also non for wealthy housing are called halls, houses, manors, castles and or loges. Wealthy men were in one hall by them selfs. Back in the early 17th century furniture was plain, heavy and mad out of walnut mahogany, the chairs got more comfortable as time when’t on.  it depends on what house hold you live in if you have a fire place in both or one side of your hall. Most wealthy people had  grandfather clocks in the home. If you have a much wealthier family then you wold have more stuff.


    Non-wealthy also now a day we call the poor. Non-wealthy people homes were make of wood, stone, bricks, or rebuilt. Furniture were plain and basic. Non-wealthy had glass windows as well as wealthy. In the early 17th century were only casement windows made and were introduced. In the late 17th century slash window starter being made and, became more popular. In the winter they put holes in there roof to let the smoke from the chimneys out.
