Apparently there is documentation that Edward II legally defined the inch in terms of 3 barleycorns, however it was in use since 1066 making it that William I may have defined it.
A barleycorn is still used today as the base measure between UK shoe sizes - each size up is a barleycorn longer than the previous.
