Do the fruit bodies behind the main specimen in he last image look to have gills? 

Just zoomed in on the original, yes they do

[David Humphries]

May just be something like Hypholoma rather than oak poly if they are all the same and have gills

Difficult to be sure at that resolution. A clearer image of the pores would be useful. 
 

They could be I. hispidus, but wouldn’t rule out Cerioporus squamosus.

Stunning pictures David (as usual !) - the Meripilus is beautiful

Dyer's mazegill beneath one dead mature scots pine and an apparently healthy one. Many of the pines have historically suffered from wildfire.

Last couple of days at work in north London, the rains have kick started the season
