A dining room is a room for ingesting meat. In modern times it is usually adjacent to the kitchen for accessibility in serving, although in medieval hours 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 culminate 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 castles or big manor houses dined in the largest vestibule. This was a large multi-function room capable of seat the bulk of the population of the house. The family would sit at the head table on a conjured dais, with the rest of the population arrayed in order of decreasing rank away from them. Tables in the great corridor would tend to be long trestle tables with terraces. The sheer number of people in a Great Hall mean it would probably have had a busy, bustling atmosphere. Suggests that it would also have been quite smelly and smoky are probably, 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 doorway and window openings .

It is true that the owners of such belongings began to develop a preference for more 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 solace 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 religion persecutions following the dissolution of the monasteries under Henry VIII constructed it unwise to talk freely in front of large volumes of people .

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

Toward the beginning of the 18 th Century, a pattern risen where the dames of the house would recede after dinner from the dining room to the drawing room. The gentlemen would remain in the dining room having guzzles. The dining room tends to take on a more masculine tenor as a result .
