They look like possibly belemnites.  Can you tell us a general location of where they were found?

 

Oops. Laditz beat me to it:)

Saltwick bay ! Unfortunately I nearly got trapped by the tide was very lucky, but I was able to get a small section of rock back with me. The other large half is still there I presume will have a few more in. Hopefully it will still be there when I go back :)

Nice belemnites, probably from the Upper Lias. :)

Acrocoelites, if I remember correctly.

I also found some of these ammonites and they we're gold in colour, picture doesn't pick up on it as much,  and also kept finding lumps of gold stuff. We were intrigued.. Am I right in thinking this is iron pyrite ?
