A dining room is a room for ingesting food. In modern times you typically adjacent to the kitchen for convenience in providing, 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 goal 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 large manor house dined in the great hall. This was a large multi-function room capable of seat the bulk of the population of the house. The household would sit at the head table on a created dais, with the rest of the population arrayed in order of diminishing rank away from them. Tables in the largest dormitory 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. Propositions that it would also have been quite smelly and smoky are likely, by the standards of the time, unfounded. These rooms had large-scale chimneys and high ceilings and there would have been a free pour of air through the numerous doorway and window openings .

It is true that the owners of such belongings began to develop a savour for more intimate gatherings 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 convenience is guaranteed 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 outage in the feudal system. Also the religious persecutions after the dissolution of the monasteries under Henry VIII stirred it unwise to talk freely in front of large numbers of people .

Over time, the aristocracy took more of their snacks in the parlour, and the parlour became, functionally, a dining room( or was split into two separate rooms ). It likewise 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 pattern emerged where the ladies of the members of this house would recede after dinner from the dining room to the drawing room. The gentlemen would remain in the dining room having beverages. The dining room tends to take on a more masculine tenor as a result .
