In response to More Ballrooms, written by Roger V on September 02, 1998 at 17:59:51
In a London townhouse, the most common location for the ballroom was on the first floor, where most of the other entertaining rooms were, including the Drawing room. The location might fluxuate from home to home, it would never be located in the attic, a place where the windows were smaller and the servants slept.
