From what I can make out, I'm not seeing any fossils. Telling what type of rock you have is extremely difficult via photograph. Usually, you need to do streak tests, hardness tests, and or specific gravity tests to figure out what you have. Feel free to post more photos in replies in this topic.

This information from HERE is very, very, very old, ... and probably no longer accurate. It is a good place to start your research from, however.
