A dining room is a room for spending food. In modern times it is usually adjacent to the kitchen for convenience in serving, although in medieval occasions it was often on an entirely different storey 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 intent 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 nobility in castles or large manor house dined in the great foyer. This was a large multi-function room capable of room the bulk of the population of the house. The clas would sit at the head table on a raised dais, with the rest of specific populations arrayed in order of diminishing grade away from them. Tables in the great auditorium would tend to be long trestle tables with terraces. The sheer number of people in a Great Hall meant 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 rooms had large-scale chimneys and high-pitched ceilings and there would have been a free flowing of air through the several doorway and window openings .

It is no doubt that the owners of such properties began to develop a delicacy for most intimate collects 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 convenience is guaranteed 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 breakdown in the feudal system. Also the religious mistreatments following the dissolution of the convents under Henry VIII established it unwise to talk freely in front of large volumes of people .

Over time, the nobility took more of their meals in the parlour, and the parlour became, functionally, a dining room( or was split into two separate rooms ). It also 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 structure 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 liquors. The dining room tends to take on a more masculine tenor as a result .
