In architecture,
a hall is
a
relatively
large
space
enclosed
by
a
roof
and
walls.[1] In
the Iron
Age and
early
Middle
Ages
in
northern
Europe,
a mead
hallwas
where
a
lord
and
his
retainers
ate
and
also
slept.
Later
in
the Middle
Ages,
the great
hall was
the
largest
room
in
castles
and
large
houses,
and
where
the
servants
usually
slept.
As
more
complex
house
plans
developed,
the
hall
remained
a
large
room
for
dancing
and
large
feasts,
often
still
with
servants
sleeping
there.
It
was
usually
immediately
inside
the
main
door.
In
modern
British
houses,
an
entrance
hall
next
to
the
front
door
remains
an
indispensable
feature,
even
if
it
is
essentially
merely
a
corridor.
Today,
the
(entrance)
hall
of
a
house
is
the
space
next
to
the
front
door
or vestibule leading
to
the
rooms
directly
and/or
indirectly.
Where
the
hall
inside
the
front
door
of
a
house
is
elongated,
it
may
be
called
a passage, corridor (from
Spanish corredorused
in El
Escorial and
100
years
later
in Castle
Howard)
or hallway.
