Thanks. Could be. Association suggests gibbosa but I always thought it had oval or elongate pores, this one has round pores. I can't think what else it can be though.

The second picture shows the surface root of a Holly that has grown across the butress and is now conflicting with the Sycamore (and winning) and there is a single shelf-like bracket on the bottom side of the impaction.

just on my way out, so not time to look properly but Oxyporus populinus is worth considering

That's a new one on me thanks for mentioning it. I will investigate distribution in Scotland.
