Feet

Feet are a unit of length in the imperial and U.S. customary systems, defined as 1/3 of a yard or 12 inches. Feet have been widely used throughout history and are still prevalent in countries like the United States and the United Kingdom for everyday measurements, especially in construction, architecture, and real estate.

Chains

A chain is a unit of length equal to 66 feet or 22 yards. It has historical significance and was widely used in the past for measuring large plots of land, especially in agriculture and real estate. The chain was often employed alongside other traditional units of length, such as rods and links. The use of chains has diminished in modern times, replaced by the metric system or other standard units of measurement. However, in some historical contexts or when dealing with older land survey records, you may still encounter references to measurements in chains.
