Mostly my finds from Hunstanton are readily intelligible, but these are some I'm struggling with. Red rock: Hunstanton Formation, Cretaceous, Albian Stage White rock: Ferriby Chalk Formation, Cretaceous, Cenomanian Stage The first are two mysteries from the Hunstanton Formation. As always, any help is greatly appreciated!

This tooth is around 99 Myo but I am not sure about the species and any advice or IDs would be greatly appreciated. It was from Hunstanton cliffs in the ferriby chalk formation. It was found in very close proximity to a giant ammonite if it helps. It is about 1cm

Hi all. I have just joined the forum so sorry if I get anything wrong! This fossil is a (I think) Cretoxyrhina shark tooth embedded in a giant ammonite. I found this on Hunstanton cliffs and it is from the Cretaceous deposit of the ferriby chalk formation. I have heard that these kinds of fossil records about prehistoric shark's diets were reasonably rare and can be of scientific interest. I was going to contact the natural history museum of Oxford if it is but couldn't find out how to so I decided to come to you guys first. The tooth is 1cm in length and the ammonite is 38 cm (15 inches). Also if anyone knows how to contact them please do say. Thanks, Harry
