Servants wages The wages of the house's servants varied according to their job and reflected the standing of their position within the heirachy of servants. Elizabeth Dibb was a dairy maid at Harewood in 1792 and she was paid £7.7 shillings a year. This low wage demonstrates that a dairy maid was low in the servants' hierarchy. Whereas Sarah Brown was a laundry maid at Harewood in 1792 and she was paid £10 a year - a better wage.
