In the UK the term cob goes back to the 1600s and is often referred to as clay lump in the East of England. The word cob possibly derives from the way in which the material is used and applied – beating and striking. In the UK, cob buildings are most prominent in Cornwall, Devon, Cumbria and the East of England.
