A Gill is a unit of measurement equal to a quater of a pint (142ml) and is still in use in the Isle of Man and Japan where they measure units of spirits in fifths of a Gill.
The quarter-gill was the most popular unit size in Scotland and is still in use today in Ireland. In southern England they call this a 'Noggin'.
