Sanitary conditions in medieval England

Sanitary conditions in medieval England were poor, lacking modern facilities. People relied on basic latrines and communal washing areas. Drinking water came mainly from rivers and wells, which were often contaminated. Poor waste management, with human and animal waste often left in the streets, led to frequent diseases. Medical knowledge was limited due to an understanding of germs, and treatments relied heavily on herbal remedies.
