Definitely jam first and to be honest that make the most sense

Spread a thin layer of cream, so the jam doesn’t crystallise on the scon/scone, add the jam then the rest of the cream is my preference.

I'm now thinking it depends on the cream. Very thick, clotted cream (consistency of butter) has to be spread on first and then jam. But, if its very light whipped cream, then jam could go on first followed by dollops of whipped cream. You cannot really dollop clotted cream

As Bon Jovi sang, you're halfway there.... Jam first is correct. It's a scone not a scon! :bear:
