A dining room is a room for eating food. In modern times it is usually adjacent to the kitchen for accessibility in serving, although in medieval days it was often on an entirely different floor tier. Historically the dining room is furnished with a rather large dining table and a number of dining chairs; the most common shape is generally rectangular with two armed point chairs and an even number of un-armed side chairs along the long backs .

History

In the Middle Ages, upper class Britons and other European aristocracy in palaces or big manor house dined in the largest corridor. This was a large multi-function chamber capable of seat the bulk of the population of the house. The family would sit at the head table on a developed dais, with the rest of the population arrayed in order of lessening rank away from them. Tables in the largest foyer would tend to be long trestle tables with terraces. The sheer number of people in a Great Hall necessitate it would probably have had a busy, bustling atmosphere. Suggestions that it would also have been quite smelly and smoky are likely, by the standards of the time, unfounded. These rooms had big chimneys and high-pitched ceilings and there would have been a free flowing of breath through the numerous door and window openings .

It is true that the owners of such belongings began to develop a taste for most intimate meets in smaller' parlers' or' privee parlers' off the primary hall but this is thought to be due as much to political and social changes as to the greater comfort afforded by such chambers. In the first instance, the Black Death that ravaged Europe in the 14 th Century induced a shortage of labor and this had led to a breakdown in the feudal system. Also the religious abuses after the dissolution of the monasteries under Henry VIII established it unwise to talk freely in front of large numbers of people .

Over time, the aristocracy took more of their meals in the parlour, and the parlour became, functionally, a dining room( or was split into two separate rooms ). It also moved farther from the Great Hall, often accessed via grand ceremonial staircases from the dais in the Great Hall. Eventually dining in the Great Hall became something that was done mainly on special occasions .

Toward the beginning of the 18 th Century, a structure risen where the ladies of the house would recede after dinner from the dining room to the drawing room. The gentlemen would remain in the dining room having alcohols. The dining room tends to take on a more masculine tenor as a result .
