Nice to be able to find fossils in your garden!

 

Looks like coral to me.

Thanks, Yes it is nice, seems to be loads  of urchins , not sure what stones they are though , always thought they were Cotswold stones but not sure ?

It's a solitary scleractinian coral. Look up "Montlivaltia", "Oppelismilia" and "Stylophyllopsis" for the general kind of thing.

There are a few quarries that mine the stuff, and it ended up in your garden. The lucky people who find fossils in their backyard, a few days ago someone found a mammoth tooth in their garden! Any way, pretty fossil, good find!
