falt

plural falts

1. An old English measure of wheat in London containing 9 bushels.

   ...1 Hen. V, cap. 10... This statute also denounces the London falt, which contained nine bushels, and a practice which had grown up in the city of making sellers of corn not only submit to this extra measure, but to a tax for measuring corn.
