Found this around the top of bed D at barton on sea. I am in contact with a couple experts, however told like to see if anyone has any more information to offer to shed a bit more light. Crocodiles from this specific area are extremely rare but not unheard of, and so far the general consensus is that it could be crocodile predatory marks. The top and middle indent are both around 5-6mm in diameter, and the larger one is around 16-17mm.

Hello, recently went on a trip to highcliffe beach/Barton on Sea (both have same formations and stretch of beach). I found 11 water-worn shark teeth from the shingle which are attached (I can post more of specific ones if needed) and lots of gastropods directly from the Barton clay, pictures will follow tomorrow if those. The formation is 40M years old. I have some rough ideas for what they may be but need some help Going from left to right starting on the first row: 1&2 I believe to be sand tiger shark of some sort. 3,4,5 and 6 I thought could be Carcharodon Auriculatus. 7 Is part of a ray plate, although very hard to capture in a photo as it is so small. Next row I don't have a clue about really except 1st I think is striatolomata sp. And 4 along (second tiny one) I think is also sand tiger possibly. Particularly curious about the one I posted more photos of individually (⁶th along on row 2) as it has a very circular top, so wondered if this could be an alligator or croc tooth? As I said I can post more of any individual ones and the gastropods tomorrow. Thanks in advance for any help, as I am in full noob mode trying to figure these out :P.
