Tour Scotland 4K short travel video clip, with Scottish music, of the dining room, on ancestry, genealogy, family history visit and trip to a Castle in Britain, United Kingdom. A dining room is a room for consuming food. Historically the dining room is furnished with a rather large dining table and several dining chairs. The most common shape is generally rectangular with two armed end chairs and an even number of unarmed side chairs on the long sides. In the Middle Ages, Britons and other European nobility in castles or large manor houses dined in the great hall. Towards the beginning of the 18th century, a pattern emerged where the ladies of the house would withdraw after dinner from the dining room to the drawing room. The gentlemen would remain in the dining room having drinks. The dining room tended to take on a more masculine tenor as a result. In the 1930s and 40s, dining rooms continued to be separate from kitchens even as servant's rooms became less common in middle-class houses. In the 1950s and 60s, dining and kitchen areas were merged, and living rooms were merged with the kitchen-dining rooms @tourscotland #music #scotland #shorts All photographs are copyright of Sandy Stevenson, Tour Scotland, and may not be used without permission.
