These coral are Favosites, Heliolites and Halysites, see my post in the Wren's nest hunt page for an ID chart that I got in a sedimentology practical 
How are you prepping these by the way? I'm trying to work on some of mine from Dudley, acetic acid doesn't really do much, so I'm just using a toothbrush and water atm on my block, but it's a little slow..
(1st is Favosites, 2nd is Halysites, 3rd and 5th are possibly some form of rugose coral, 4th is Heliolites)
