It's probably a concretion but just to make sure it's not a giant ammonite or something I would clear away the grey rock (limestone or some variation thereof I assume), then you can crack the concretion and see if there are any fossils inside of it.

It is a very big ammonite. You can see the suture lines on the surface.

Some of them were extremely large, for example Parapuzosia seppenradensis. Take a look here . :)
