[Field Marshal Dr. Opti]

It's only a small piece of land set out in a triangular shape.

Roughly 60 feet (at it's longest) by 30 feet (at its widest) before coming to a point. Triangle shape.

How many square feet or what proportion of an acre that is I don't know.

I shall measure it properly when I get the chance.

How the other half live!    Lord Opti extending his estate to gather in more rents from the Serfs!

He's building a triangular shaped house so that, whatever angle they come at, lorries just deflect off the side.

60x30 is not big enough for a house. In fact it's barely a big enough area for your whippet to take a dump.

 Fack orf.....60x30 is the size of a large cardboard box.

I'm talking feet not metres.

That's about 0.02 of an acre!

So jack all......although as you want it......expect it to be four figures.....

That's about 0.02 of an acre!

So jack all......although as you want it......expect it to be four figures.....

0.2.......one fifth or 20% of an acre sounds nearer the mark, Mark....Or perhaps my maths is flawed.

One acre is 4940 square yards. So roughly 70 yards by 70 yards. Not that big really.

[Marks DTM Calib]

I thought you said 60 x 30 foot triangle e.g. 200 square yards divide 2 as its a triangle....so 100 square yards .

so 0.02 - 0.04 of an acre

I thought you said 60 x 30 foot triangle e.g. 200 square yards divide 2 as its a triangle....so 100 square yards .

so 0.02 - 0.04 of an acre 

I've measured it as best I can. it is roughly 54 feet by 24 feet.

so.....1296 sq feet. This figure must be divided by 2 because the land is triangle shaped. This gives us roughly  648 square feet.

With 9 square feet to a square yard this gives us  72 square yards.

With 4940 sq yards to an acre, 72 square yards represents approximately 0.0145 of an acre........or 1.45%.

Looks as though you were right, Mark.
