Forms: 1500s reste-balk, 1600s rest-balk, 1600s rest-balke, 1700s 1900s– rest-baulk, 1700s–1800s rist-baulk, 1800s rice-balk.

Origin: Of uncertain origin. Perhaps formed within English, by compounding. Etymons: reest n., balk n.¹; rest n.¹, rest v.¹, balk n.¹

Etymology: Origin uncertain; perhaps < reest n. + balk n.¹ (compare balk n.¹ 3), or perhaps < either rest n.¹ or rest v.¹ + balk n.¹ (compare balk n.¹ 3). Compare rest-balk v.The form rice-balk suggests that the first element shows reest n. (compare forms at that entry), although it is possible that it could result from later association of the two words.

Now historical and rare.

A ridge left unploughed between two furrows, esp. one resulting from the process of raftering or ribbing.
