JohnBrewer Posted July 29, 2016 Share Posted July 29, 2016 As Craig says, pictures from different angle with a ruler for scale and a location is needed. And welcome to the forum John Map of UK fossil sites Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LordTrilobite Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 I think you might have a suggestively shaped rock here. Though it does vaguely look like a worn jaw. Olof Moleman AKA Lord Trilobite Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fossildude19 Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 Sorry, but it is geologic in origin - not biologic. There is no bone texture or jaw morphology. Definitely a rock.
