Hi, 

 

I know it’s not a fossil but can anybody help with ID’ing this rock which I think is an agate?

 

thanks!

Welcome to the forum. 

It's not an agate - looks like a limestone nodule with calcite in a joint. Very similar to ones I've seen from the Jurassic of Dorset and Yorkshire but by no means confined to there.
