Chain

A chain is a unit of length traditionally used in land surveying. The most common version is the Gunter’s chain, which equals 66 feet or 22 yards, approximately 20.1168 meters.

The chain was introduced by English clergyman Edmund Gunter in the 17th century to simplify land measurement. One chain consists of 100 links, each 0.66 feet long. It became a standard unit in British and American land surveying and was instrumental in defining land areas, especially in the U.S. Public Land Survey System.

Key Conversions:

1 chain = 66 feet
1 chain = 22 yards
1 chain ≈ 20.1168 meters
10 chains = 1 furlong
80 chains = 1 mile

Though now largely replaced by metric units and modern surveying tools, the chain still appears in older land deeds, maps, and rural property descriptions.

A statute mile is a unit of length commonly used in the United States and the United Kingdom. It is officially defined as 5,280 feet or 1,609.344 meters. The term "statute mile" distinguishes it from other types of miles, such as the nautical mile. The origin of the statute mile dates back to an Act of Parliament in England in 1593, which standardized the length of the mile. It is primarily used for measuring distances on land, such as in road signs, speed limits, and maps. While many countries have adopted the metric system, the statute mile remains in everyday use in a few countries. In contrast to the nautical mile, which is used for air and sea navigation, the statute mile is mainly applied in land-based contexts. It is also used to calculate speed in miles per hour (mph), especially for vehicles and road travel.
