About These Units

About Hide

The hide is a very old English unit of land area, dating from perhaps the seventh century. The hide was the amount of land that could be cultivated by a single plowman and thus the amount of land necessary to support a family. Depending on local conditions, this could be as little as 60 acres or as much as 180 acres (24-72 hectares). The hide was more or less standardized as 120 acres (48.6 hectares) after the Norman conquest of 1066. The hide continued in use throughout medieval times, but it is now obsolete. The unit was also known as the carucate.

About Virgate

The virgate is an old English unit of land area equal to 1/4 hide. This is roughly 30 acres or 12 hectares. The virgate was also called the yardland or yard of land.
