The Cornbrash Formation is a Middle Jurassic geological formation in England. It ranges in age from Bathonian to Callovian, the uppermost part of the Middle Jurassic. Dinosaur remains are among the fossils that have been recovered from the formation, although none have yet been referred to a specific genus. The name Cornbrash is an old English agricultural name applied in Wiltshire to a variety of loose rubble or brash which, in that part of the country, forms a good soil for growing corn. The name was adopted by William Smith for a thin band of shelly limestone which, in the south of England, breaks up in the manner indicated. Although only a thin group of rocks (10–25 feet c. 3–7 m), it is remarkably persistent; it may be traced from Weymouth to the Yorkshire coast, but in north Lincolns

  • Der Cornbrash-Sandstein (auch Eisenkalk) wurde um Lübbecke und Minden bis Lemgo, Osnabrück, Hannover, Braunschweig und Fallersleben gebrochen. Es handelt sich um einen vor allem karbonatisch- und auch glaukonitisch-gebundenen Sandstein, der Eisen enthält. Er entstand im Mittleren Jura. (de)
