A Manorial Court was a local court in medieval England that dealt with disputes and issues related to the manor, which was a large estate owned by a lord. These courts were responsible for managing the affairs of the manor, including land disputes, tenant obligations, and local regulations. They played a crucial role in the feudal system, where the lord had authority over the land and the people living on it. The court typically consisted of the lord, his officials, and local tenants. Decisions made in the Manorial Court were based on customary law and local practices. It served as a way to maintain order and resolve conflicts within the community, ensuring that the lord's interests and the rights of the tenants were upheld.
