Gills (UK)

Imperial Gill Brass Measure. Used to measure a gill of spirits served within an ale house or inn. This was a standard measure. When this was made pewter tankards were still widely used in the trade and they were not of a standard volume. Such measures often have several verification marks if they had not been tampered with over long periods.

In both of those systems it is traditionally one-eighth of a gallon. The British imperial pint is about 20% larger than the American pint because the two systems are defined differently. Almost all other countries have standardized on the metric system, so the size of what may be called a pint varies depending on local custom.
