It does look like some sort of 'Fossilized bone', how big was it?

There is tones of agatized bone in the hatch and demning area, usually they are in the gravels.

While, I'm not much on vert stuff...

It appears to be a chert nodule, not fossil. Harry would know!

I'm 90% certain that this is not a bone fragment.
