contained a long table, invariably strongly made and of joined
construction, normally with square chamfered legs with H-shaped or
simple end stretchers. Placed beneath the window (where there was
often a fixed seat) to obtain the benefit of the light, these were
for worksurfaces as well as dining, and often had tops which were
reversible leaving an unpolished surface for tasks such as food
preparation, laundry and occasional tailoring. The opportunities for
furnishing in other rooms led to the adoption of a wider variety of
types, some of which were native developments, whilst others were
borrowings or adaptations of urban models. Small side tables became
more commonplace, the earliest being basically continuations of 17th
century styles, with good quality turned legs united by stretchers.
