[benedmonds]

This is one of a number of brackets round the trunk and roots of a whitebeam.

 

Not a like you get in the books but I'm guessing:

Ganoderma adspersum (thum can't go through!)

[Nimby]

Looks like a very old G bracket on an Oak

I did take some in situ, only to find when I got home that I didn't have a card in the camera.

 

The oak they are pictured on is a car boot bargain which has been the reason for knocking down a wall in my old house and building an extension in the present one... The things you have to do to get a big table to fit in your house!
