Sophisticated Skeptic Posted March 15, 2015 Share Posted March 15, 2015 next season, we gotta do all totals in barleycorns. I predict 198 barleycorns here for 2015 / 2016. Three barleycorns comprising 1 inch was the legal definition of the inch in many medieval laws, both of England and Wales, from the 10th-century Laws of Hywel Dda to the 1324 definition of the inch enacted by Edward II. Note the relation to the grain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
