Rood is an English unit of area (and an obsolete measure of length) which has been in common use up to the 20th century.
It was originally established as a rectangular piece of land with dimensions of 10x40 rods (also known as ‘poles’; 1 rod = 5.5 yd or 5.0292 m).
Below you will find other conversions from rood to imperial and metric units of area.
