There is not - a much larger room sits above it that takes up the whole kitchen plus about half of the dining room.

You could well be right - I'm not 100% sure whether it's actually taking weight though.
If the beams go in the direction I think they do (horizontal), at most only one beam would actually be resting on it. Of course if they go vertical then it would definitely be taking weight and an RSJ designed by a structural engineer is needed.
