Until 1971 our currency was not decimal. Britain has undergone an extremely lengthy process of metrication that lasted from the 60s to the 90s and to this day people still use imperial units for measuring driving distance, beer and cider, body weight/height, horse height. It should be pointed out that imperial units are not the same as American units.
