Spotted this in a small bay on Anglesey, Wales. There were lots of other small shellfish type fossils mostly in slate rocks, but this one was larger and seems to have vertebrae? Could anyone offer any insight into what this is please? Many thanks.

For better help, you should include photos from various angles, and zoomed in, to see more details.

Anglesey is Paleozoic (and Pleistocene). I don't think it's a glacial erratic, so doubt this is an ammonite. 

Looks like Carboniferous limestone to me.
