Size of my local small golf club: 53.3 hectares. And that’s one of the largest stadiums in the country, vs one of many, many golf courses. Edit: For decimal place fuckup.

minus-squareBlackmist@feddit.uklinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·1 year agoHang on, I’ve got my decimal point one over. For some reason I thought a hectare was 1,000m², and it’s 10,000m². So 20.8 vs 53.3 hectares. But a basic bog-standard golf club is still over twice the size of one of the largest football stadiums in the country.
