We have a few sites for it in Weardale and I know of one substantial population up at Alston, but it's pretty uncommon around here. I think your fungus is the slime mould Mucilago crustacea - it goes through creeping, slimey phase then forms a hard 'crust' when it produces spores.Philhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15609107148344256875noreply@blogger.com
