My first thoughts were Conocybe but Psathyrella maybe. I will do the microscope work later.

hi Mal
of course both
Conocybe and
Psathyrella have light brown and dark brown spores respectively, and those gills don't look to have such spores . . .
when you do look at the fungus under the scope, check that it
is producing spores . . . last year I was totally thrown by this:
which turned out to be a sterile
Psathyrella
I daresay
Entoloma is a possibility . . . microscopy would sort that immediately
