Best Answer

An "ell" is a length - generally of rope - from a man's elbow to the tip of his middle finger. Like most archaic measurements, it wasn't all that precise, because every man's arm is a slightly different length, but we can use 18 inches as a good approximation. To approximate the approximation, try holding a rope in one hand and wrapping the rope from your hand to your elbow and back, many times. Each circle will be about two ells.

So, 3000 ells would be - very roughly! - 4500 feet.
