English term
acres v. hectares

units of measurement
In an article for the general public, to be translated into British English, there is a description of an estate belonging to Gaudí's patron Eusebi Güell that says it covered some thirty hectares. Do I leave that as hectares or do I turn it into acres (x 2.471)?

If it has to be in British English, the measurement will have to be converted.
