Bap or roll, depending on how big it is.

As far as I know balm cake is only used in a very small part of the North.

In most of the country Tea Cakes contain curants/raisin and are frequently toasted. Think hot cross bun without the cross.

Bread cake is a Yorkshire thing, and up here theres something called Stotty's which I think are really really big baps, but not being native I'm not sure.

Yep it's a roll to me too, or to stretch it, a bun! i've never heard it called either a barm or tea cake, to me, a tea cake would be something with fruit it.
