Fossil identification

To Peter,

Many thanks for message and the interest in the fossil.. you asked about the local rock. In the immediate area of the fossil site, and for quite a large area around, there is the "tombstone" slate...however, a nearby high ridge contains a red sedimentary rock and it is from this direction that the stream comes. However, the fossil and the stream may have nothing to do with each other!
