A dining room is a room for expending 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 level. 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 purpose chairs and an even number of un-armed side chairs along the long sides .

History

In the Middle Ages, upper class Britons and other European grandeur in castles or big manor house dined in the great dorm. 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 grown 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 benches. The sheer number of people in a Great Hall intended it would probably have had a busy, bustling atmosphere. Propositions that it would also have been quite smelly and smoky are probably, by the standards of the time, unfounded. These chambers had large-scale chimneys and high-pitched ceilings and there would have been a free flowing of breath through the several doorway and window openings .

It is true that the owners of such belongings began to develop a preference 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 afforded by such chambers. In the first instance, the Black Death that ruined Europe in the 14 th Century caused a shortage of labour and this had led to a dislocation in the feudal system. Likewise the religious abuses after the dissolution of the convents under Henry VIII constructed it unwise to talk freely in front of large numbers of people .

Over time, the aristocracy 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 occasions .

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 drinkings. The dining room tended to take on a more masculine tenor as a result .
