Animal Long Bone?

Hi. So, I have a couple of pieces of animal bone that I cannot identify - I feel like I should know what they are but just can't quite put my finger on it.

 

They were located in Lincolnshire, England, and I'm after the type of bone they are and possibly the animal - although large (cattle sized), medium (sheep sized) or small (rabbit sized) would also work for what I need them for.

 

I will post each individual bone in a separate post to make it easier to identify.

 

This one is approximately 122mm long. I think it's a long bone, but can't identify the actual bone itself - if that makes sense?

Not an expert but it looks like bone from a juvenile ?? as the ends appear to be missing the growth plates. Meaning the joint ends were not yet attached to the long bone.
