Is this a footprint?

Found this at Rocken End, St Catherine's point, Isle of Wight, think it comes from the greensand formation but I'd be surprised if this is a footprint since this is a marine deposit

Not a footprint, but the portion towards the bottom of the photo resembles a nautiloid segment. Additional photos of all the other sides would be helpful.

Fossil hunting is easy -- they don't run away when you shoot at them!

I see a few interesting features, but can't say with any certainty from just looking at the photos that any of them are fossils. Doesn't mean they're not, just means I don't see anything that I can identify. Photos aren't the same as holding it in your hands.
