A dining room is a room for consuming meat. In modern times you typically adjacent to the kitchen for accessibility in providing, although in medieval periods it was often on an entirely different flooring grade. Historically the dining room is furnished with a rather large dining table and a number of dining chairs; the more common shape is generally rectangular with two armed intention chairs and an even number of un-armed back chairs along the long sides .

History

In the Middle Ages, upper class Britons and other European grandeur in palaces or large-scale manor houses dined in the great hallway. This was a large multi-function chamber capable of seating the bulk of the population of the house. The family would sit at the head table on a elevated dais, with the rest of the population arrayed in order of decreasing grade away from them. Tables in the largest passageway 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 chambers had big chimneys and high ceilings and there would have been a free flow of breath through the several doorway and window openings .

It is no doubt that the owners of such properties began to develop a savor for more intimate meetings in smaller' parlers' or' privee parlers' off the primary hall but this is thought to be due just as much to political and social changes as to the greater consolation afforded by such rooms. In the first instance, the Black Death that ravaged Europe in the 14 th Century made a shortage of labour and this had led to a dislocation in the feudal system. Likewise the religion persecutions after the dissolution of the convents under Henry VIII made it unwise to talk freely in front of large volumes of people .

Over time, the nobility took more of their banquets in the parlour, and the parlor became, functionally, a dining room( or was split into two detached chambers ). It also migrated 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 dames of the house would withdraw after dinner from the dining room to the drawing room. The gentlemen would remain in the dining room having drinkings. The dining room tends to take on a more masculine tenor as a result .
