A type of limestone or rocky soil layer found in corn-growing regions, particularly a geological formation in agricultural areas.
Compound of corn + brash, from brash meaning 'loose fragments' or 'gravelly.' A geological term from British agriculture describing fragmented stone.
Cornbrash is a geological layer named for where it's found—farmers would hit this limestone layer while plowing, creating specific agricultural challenges that geologists eventually named after the crop!
