Continuing to go out of my comfot zone!
Looking through my FTE, I'm getting to the meruloid section (as pores are lacking)
Very small inamyloid spores 4.6 - 5 x 1.9 - 2.6μm.
Clavate cystidia. Perhaps Phlebia rufa? The colour is more pink after a couple of days
Not sure of wood type but growing in plantation of Fagus and Quercus with a scattering of other trees like Fraxinus.
Close to the Cleddau estuary.
Corticoid

Re: Corticoid
Could someone please help me identify this fungus found on a dead tree?

Re: Corticoid
Welcome to UK Fungi 
It looks like one of the Ganoderma species. G. australe or G. applanatum.
In future, please start a new topic for a fungus ID.
