Newbie ID Query - Paw Print?

[girlfrommars]

Hey, not sure I’m posting in the correct manner but any help ID’ing would be gratefully received! Also I’m aware it may not be a fossil. 

Found in a remote area in Breckland Norfolk UK, next to a bomb hole (which are common here) so could have been thrown up in an explosion?

The photos don’t seem to capture the depth but it looks like a paw print? 

 

Cheers all

Can We see the other sides?

Welcome to the Forum.

We will need some pictures of the item from different angles, for a proper ID. Preferably 

These two appear to be from the same viewpoint. 

That said, it is probably more likely to be the imprint of some shell material.

It looks like flint which you'd expect from there - it often sports weird shapes and patterns. It won't be a paw print but might be a sponge impression.

Thanks everyone. Much appreciated!

This is the reverse. 

I thought it may be sponges. I don’t think it is flint though...

Looks like chert or flint to me, so, sponge would be a good possibility.

I agree with the others. The matrix looks to have a silica-rich content (conchoidal fractures are visible). Flint is a good candidate. The inclusion might be sponge.

It's definitely flint (which in UK terminology means chert from the Cretaceous Chalk), just rather fractured.
