What were the commons and congregations of the new england area?

A run of the mill Puritan New England town was based on a "commons," or a focal field for all to utilize. The meeting house, which was the primary religious and group building, neglected the commons. Adjacent was a bar, which was the principle social establishment for the group. In spite of the fact that inebriation was disapproved of, drinking itself was adequate on the grounds that lager was regularly more secure to drink than water. Consequently, early New England towns commanded that bars be as near the meeting house as conceivable with the goal that devotees could enjoy a reprieve from long Sunday administrations to warm up before coming back to love. There were a few homes nearby for the craftsmans, for example, the metalworkers, shoemakers, and those associated with delivery. The rancher's living arrangements stretched out from the commons, with the well off and prosperous having more and preferable land over poorer families.
