Photo a Day Challenge - 28.8.2013 - Corridor.
What's the difference between a Corridor and a Hall?? I've done a Google Search (see below) and I find that we shouldn't call this a Hall, it's really a Corridor! The things one learns on the Internet!
This is our signature Hall or should I say... Corridor. The first to sign was an American friend way back in 1986 and friends, family and kids are still signing! :-)
This is what Wiki tells me a Hall is...
In architecture, a hall is fundamentally a relatively large space enclosed by a roof and walls.[1] In the Iron Age, a mead hall was such a simple building and was the residence of a lord and his retainers. Later, rooms were partitioned from it, so that today the hall of a house is the space inside the front door through which the rooms are reached....

Interesting, Pennie (as is your wall!)I must admit I have never used hall, always called it a hallway. Corridors were things in public buildings like hospitals and council chambers, though, not in homes. Don't think I could start using corridor for the home. lol I'll stick to hallway, as it seems appropriate.
Yeah! I would say... go down the hallway and it's the first door on your left ... or ... you can write your name on the Hall Wall!! :-) Never Corridor!
