Definition
An entrance hall or vestibule; a room before the main hall of a building.
Etymology
From 'fore-' (before) + 'hall' (a large room or building section). This architectural term from Middle English describes the functional space that precedes the principal rooms, common in castle and manor design.
Kelly Says
Medieval forehalls were strategic—they let castle inhabitants control who entered the main hall, acting as a security checkpoint before reaching the important rooms!
