What are stones (st)?
The stone is a traditional British unit of weight, officially equal to 14 pounds avoirdupois (approximately 6.35 kilograms). Historically, its value varied between 4 to 32 pounds depending on the commodity and region. In 1389, a royal statute standardized the stone for wool at 14 pounds, a measure that eventually became the general standard. Today, the stone remains in customary use in the United Kingdom and Ireland, primarily for expressing human body weight, despite the global shift towards the metric system.
