The Painted Chamber was a meeting place for some early English Parliaments in the later 13th century. The House of Lords met in the nearby Queen’s Chamber, and later in the White Chamber. The House of Commons first met in the Chapter House of Westminster Abbey in 1352, moving from there in 1397 to the Refectory, or dining hall, of Westminster Abbey. After the Reformation, Edward VI gave the Commons the use of St. Stephen’s chapel, where they stayed until it burned down in 1834.
