Second link does not seem to be working. The single image in the first link is enigmatic and hopefully someone who knows more about ammonites has identified it as such since it doesn't appear like any ammos I've ever seen. Would be interesting if it is a new locality for such things.

 

 

Cheers.

Ditto for me.  Whatever those things are they don't look much like ammonites to me.

Hopefully the about reposted link works.

 

I find them dubious too. Thought people might still be interested.
