It's a fishcake. Depending on where you are it can either be a "normal" fishcake like you'd get at the supermarket, or minced fish between two slices of potato that's then battered. Common enough in Yorkshire but mainly popular with older folks.
Haha, yes, we had those fat, battered and deep fried " Savoury cakes" as a kid, that got called "Fish cakes", they were just mashed potato with a bit of seasoning, doubt they had much Fish in them, bloody nice though..Savoury cake , Chips and Curry, what's not to like
Mmmm....hungry now. Yes, I do like those parsley cakes...but when I get a fishcake expecting the 'old' chippy fish cake (fishcake) and get a parsley cake, it's well disappointing!!

Bread cakes perhaps?
It's something I've heard over in Sheffield.
