Any help much appreciated

The first one makes me think of Collybia confluens. Was the second with Hawthorn? It is very photogenic.

Yes, I agree with Leif. The ones in the left of the top photo are definitely Collybia confluens but I'm not sure whether the smaller ones with the whitish caps to the right of the photo are the same species. It's not possible to be sure from the photo.

And I assume Leif was hinting at Tubaria dispersa for the second photo, which I would also agree with. They would be growing on buried berries, usually of hawthorn. The colour and spacing of the gills is very characteristic.

Yes, I agree, as already suggested - the top one definitely Collybia confluens and the bottom one definitely Tubaria dispersa (= T. autochthona)

Ken is correct about the reason for my question:

Oh yes, didn't notice them lurking there !! They don't look like Collybia confluens do they ?

Thanks Leif, Ken and Nick

Tubaria dispersa … yes, plenty of hawthorn nearby.
