The life of a Anglo Saxon was hard. They were very poor and had to live on what they had. Most of the Saxons were farmers that had fields and animals, they still ran low on food for the animals and forced to slaughtered. The higher class Saxon's life was still hard and had to do what they could to survive ("Life in Anglo Saxon England").

Lifestyle

The Anglo Saxon's lived in small wooden huts, and they had thatched roofs on top. Everyone had to sleep in the same room of the hut. They had to either sleep on the ground or on wooden planks. Poor families slept with animals, so body heat would keep them warm. The huts didn’t have windows, the toilets were pits dug into the ground outside the huts ("Life in Anglo Saxon England").
