You're right on Winter arriving BROC, but I don't think this is H. hypojethus. The gills look very similar in themselves, but the way they're attached is quite opposite. Compare with a recent find of this species that I photographed on Sunday; 
Note the gill attachments of my specimen- Slightly decurrent, whereas Ian's look more free. My initial thoughts of Ian's fungus are circling the genuses Tricholoma, Lyophyllum or Hygrophorus.
I'll have a look through the books for this one, and whatever it is, it's a lovely species!

Yes - I can see I'm wrong about that. The only Gymnopilus I've seen have seemed more consistently orange than this so I shall tactfully withdraw. |

with the yellow gills it looks very much like Tricholoma fulvum, were there any birch trees nearby?
