Long Term Consequences

Long term consequences of the Peasants Revolt

The Peasants Revolt led to the end of Poll Tax, peasants becoming villeins, parliamentary control of wages and it inspired later rebellions. Wat Tyler also became a cultural hero.

Poll Tax stopped

Poll Tax was stopped and never repeated again until 1990 (it was renamed as Council Tax in 1993).

Villeins banned

50 years after the Revolt, making peasants into villeins was banned.
Peasants were free to now love and work where they wanted.

Wage control stopped

Parliament stopped trying to control wages, so peasants' wages slowly increased over time by around 40%.

Inspiration

The Revolt inspired later rebellions over the next few centuries, where the peasants demanded more freedoms and rights.

Wat Tyler

Wat Tyler became a hero, remembered in many stories, poems and plays.
For example, he was referenced in Chaucer's Canterbury Tales, Elizabethan plays and the writings on the American War of Independence.
