Whilst walking in The South Downs near Brighton last summer I found this object in the ploughed field. There is a possibility it is just a nicely shaped rock, but it just looks too much like a tooth so I'd thought I'd get a second opinion. See what you think...

I think it's a piece of flint/chert.
