A dining room is a room for ingesting food. 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 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 point chairs and an even number of un-armed back chairs along the long backs .

History

In the Middle Ages, upper class Britons and other European aristocracy in palaces or large-scale manor houses dined in the largest auditorium. This was a large multi-function chamber capable of seating the bulk of the population of the house. The clas would sit at the head table on a grown dais, with the rest of specific populations arrayed in order of lessening grade away from them. Tables in the largest auditorium would tend to be long trestle tables with benches. The sheer number of people in a Great Hall mean 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 rooms had huge chimneys and high ceilings and there would have been a free pour of breath through the numerous entrance and window openings .

It is true that the owners of such belongings began to develop a penchant for more intimate meetings 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 labour and this had led to a dislocation in the feudal system. Likewise the religious mistreatments after the dissolution of the monasteries under Henry VIII built it unwise to talk freely in front of large volumes of people .

Over time, the grandeur took more of their meals in the parlour, and the parlour became, functionally, a dining room( or was split into two detached 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 primarily on special occasions .

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