Call it the heel. The crust is the outer surface of the entire loaf, unless people have a different name for that too.

I think it's a Scottish thing but it's the correct way.

The crust or the end slice, suppose the end slice makes the most sense

I've never heard it called anything other than the nobby, although I've not spent much time pondering it. Is it a London thing, I wonder?

I'm not sure it is.. I live in London and most people seem to say end slice.

But then one of my friends says "nobby" and suggested it was an Irish thing, yet I'm part Irish and no-one in my family who's actually from Ireland has ever said that.

I'm Irish and I've never heard anyone refer to it as nobby, Heel is the only thing I've ever heard anyone here call it

I have heard "crust" but I've never, ever heard "end slice". But then I'm talking Bethnal Green/Bow east London where my Dad's family originate from and not Romford, Essex. Unless your family originally comes from the East End?

Anyhoo... I'm shocked to see there's still only one vote for Nobby! And it's such a good word...

I have only ever called it a crust. Never known it be called any of the other words.

The crust is how it is defined in the oxford English dictionary. Therefore the Crust is the correct way of saying it.

Everyone, EVERYONE calls it the heel here.

I call it 'the fat part' though.
