certainly look like wood blewits , I wouldn't have thought twice 

There not much difference Steve, but the caps seemed a bit thin and brittle where as others I've found and I don't find many usually have a thicker firmer cap bit like a Field mushroom. Didn't even know there was a "Sordid Blewit", Lol. Must be well cooked and can upset some people, so will try just a small piece first, but I think if I remember right that goes for all the Blewit's.

Not sure mate. Could you turn one over and show the underside and all the stem. In the mean time I'll get a book out. I take it its woodland by all the leaves.

Have a look at "The Miller" on this page but read the warning on the bottom of the page. I still haven't got the guts to try one yet as there are some deadly ones you can muddle with it and it might be one of them. If your not sure don't eat it mate.

Didn't you have a good run on them Shaggy Ink Caps as well mate. It was so dry this year early part of the season was crap but picked up after the rain started. The Winter Chanterelles just starting and still getting the Hedgehogs, seen a load of Trooping Funnels still about but not confident with them yet. Them blewits came up in my garden, Lol been looking every where for them. 

Popped a disk in my back while out ferreting Sunday, been in agony since, so I'm bxggered at the moment.

Went for a painful walk (trying to keep moving) around Dartington hall gardens, seen these under a yew tree. Magpie Fungus poisonous.

I’m no expert but going by the excellent guide Arry put up it looks like an Orange Oak Bolete  what do you think Arry ?

Found this out lamping under a blackthorn hedge in a grass field. It's 7 inchs in diameter.

Could be on the money there FLATTOP also maybe the Orange Birch Bolete both very similar ether way I would eat it, as long as it didn't cut and go blue, which I don't think it will. It really is a nice find in very good looking condition Cheesemastergen.

Yea Parasol or Shaggy Parasol both edible (some people can't tolerate the Shaggy Parasol). But as I decided to check I opened the Roger Phillips Mushroom book on page 26 and theres a dead ringer"Lepiota Konradii" no common name its rare and edible so it maybe that one.

Cheers Arry
