Hi all, I have found these peculiar looking rocks.. please can someone help? Could they be fossils? They are quite curious looking things.

Found in the UK, East coast on a stoney beach called Covehithe.

The brownish one, could be a mouth plate (after lots of googling!) or maybe a seed pod (or even poo!). Or not any of these things?!

And the other one (greyish).. no idea, guess it could just be an odd looking rock!!

Many thanks for letting me join this exciting forum!

Hello, Lucy, and a very warm welcome to TFF from Morocco. :)

Could you load the photos as JPG files, please? The forum software doesn't load HEIC files. :shrug:

I dont think either are fossils. Some of the flint on English beaches can be the most remarkable natural easter eggs.

The brown one may be a septarian nodule.

Oh thank you abyssunder, I've just had a google and you might be on to something there! Thanks for the lead!

And val horn, yes, there is a strong possibility! They're are both such unusual things so I'm living in hope it is something, thanks very much for checking them!
