A dining room is a room for devouring meat. In modern times it is usually adjacent to the kitchen for accessibility in serving, although in medieval times it was often on an entirely different floor degree. 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 intention 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 castles or big manor house dined in the largest auditorium. 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 raised dais, with the rest of specific populations arrayed in order of decreasing rank away from them. Tables in the great passageway would tend to be long trestle tables with terraces. The sheer number of people in a Great Hall signify 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 large chimneys and high ceilings and there would have been a free flow of air through the several door and window openings .

It is true that the owners of such belongings began to develop a savour for more intimate meetings in smaller' parlers' or' privee parlers' off the main hall but this is thought to be due as much to political and social changes as to the greater solace is guaranteed by such chambers. In the first instance, the Black Death that ruined Europe in the 14 th Century made a shortage of labor and this had led to a dislocation in the feudal system. Also the religion mistreatments following the dissolution of the convents under Henry VIII constructed it unwise to talk freely in front of large volumes of people .

Over time, the grandeur took more of their dinners in the parlour, and the parlour became, functionally, a dining room( or was split into two detached rooms ). 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 moments .

Toward the beginning of the 18 th Century, a structure emerged 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 .
