Anyone identify this stone

[bazh]

Hello to everyone on the site, I was hoping someone could help me with a stone I found whilst gardening. I live in England in a place famous for clay pits in the past, don't know if that's got any relevance. The stone is not magnetic and the black part feels and looks like slate. Any help would be great

Hello to everyone ...

I noticed this was your very first post - so, Welcome Aboard Baz! You didn't list your state (or country) in your profile. So, you might consider jumping over to Sub-Forums: Select Your Area.... and selecting location information (i.e., clubs, hunts, finds, legends, maps, etc.) directly related to your state (or country). You might also consider adding your state (or country) to your displayed profile (SETTINGS -> EDIT PROFILE) so if you ask a question, etc. - people may have more success helping you (your location may help, etc.)...
