Is this a fossil?!

I found this on a beach in the Isle of Wight. Not sure if it’s a pattern on the rock or a fossil. The shape is much darker than appears on the photos but I’ve done my best.

 

 Thank you!

That's flint / chert. 

It does seem to have something in it, but I can't see what, I'm afraid. 

Echinoids and sponges are the usual suspects.
