Down here, a large piece of bread that you have sliced (or slice yourself) is a loaf. Fastfood outlets put burgers in buns, but locally a bun is a cake (like a current bun). A small, round piece of bread is either a bap or a roll. A roll can also refer to the entire product including it's filling (i.e. a round version of a sandwich). A small, long piece of bread is also a roll (commonly holds a sausage).
A cob is a small horse. A batch is a large number of anything, not limited to bread, but I believe so-called because "I've just made a large batch of bread".

A Barm is not a word in the south west AFAIK.

Yes, because if I have a question about food or regional dialects, the first place I turn to is Tesco.

'Current' buns are bang on trend.
Hipster's love 'em.

Your loss.

Talk of oven bottoms is making me salivate: like a barm, but thinner and with a crust, it's your all-purpose bread product. Time for a trip to Bury market.

Have a hot black pudding on me mate.
One half with mustard and one with mint always did for me.

[nickyboy]

Where I live now it's "barm" but where I was brought up it's "bun"

I think "muffin" should be on the list although I do concede it's a flatter thing altogether than a barm/bun

Chip muffin......
