Ironstone nodule, I believe.

A quick Wiki check indicates that ironstone can, but need not be formed as concretion. I'm used to the brooks being labeled full of concretions. 

Nodule vs concretion ?

Yes, I think an ironstone with limonite concretion or nodule.

It seems likely that all are in the mix. Being weathered, rolled, and stained a good lumping is probably in order.
