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 grade. 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 palaces or huge manor houses dined in the great vestibule. This was a large multi-function room capable of seating 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 lessening grade away from them. Tables in the largest vestibule would tend to be long trestle tables with benches. The sheer number of people in a Great Hall intend 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 chambers had big chimneys and high ceilings and there would have been a free flowing of breath through the numerous entrance and window openings .

It is no doubt that the owners of such properties began to develop a delicacy for more intimate gatherings in smaller' parlers' or' privee parlers' off the main 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 labor and this had led to a dislocation in the feudal system. Likewise the religious abuses after the dissolution of the monasteries under Henry VIII established it unwise to talk freely in front of large volumes of people .

Over time, the aristocracy took more of their snacks in the parlor, and the parlor became, functionally, a dining room( or was split into two detached chambers ). 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 moments .

Toward the beginning of the 18 th Century, a pattern emerged where the madams 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 sips. The dining room tended to take on a more masculine tenor as a result .
