You never heard the term “back 40”? 160 acres is a quarter section. A section is a mile by a mile, 640 acres. 1/640 of a square mile. Roughly 8 feet wide and a mile long.
8’ x 1 mile works, but the way it would usually be subdivided is to be a 16th section - or 1/4 of 1/4. Like a 16-light window. 2 x 2 furlongs, or a quarter-mile by quarter-mile.

Uhhh yeah, thanks. That really helped
Sigh. 2.15 metres by 1.6 kilometers.
43,560 square feet = one acre.
The square root of 43,560 is 208.71 feet
208.71 feet/ 2.5 feet per step for men = 84 steps.
So walk 84 steps then turn a right angle and walk another 84. One acre is the area contained in that square.

No shit. Read what I wrote again.
