Correction: lay brothers would had their own refectory. Corrodarians might be fed elsewhere, though in 1524 at Ardern Alice widow of William Berre,m paid twelve pounds and was granted
"mett and drynke as their convent hath", at their common table, or when sick in her own room. Doubtless other records would reveal similar arrangements in male and female houses.

Greetings all!
A question for those of you familiar with monastic customs, esp. in the 13th -16th centuries. 

I'm trying to find out where and when lay brothers and corrodarians would have been served their meals. 

I am assuming they are not present at the meals of the monks, but am wondering what the arrangements were. Does anyone know?
Thanks in advance, 

Meg

PS I have a few contracts with corrodarians which say they should get food "as good as the monks" implying that they were not all together, but  have found nothing about lay brothers/sisters.
