Welcome to WAB Llews  . Your mushrooom looks more like Macrolepiota rhacodes. Scratch the base of the stipe . If it goes orange / brown it's M. rhacodes. ...which is edible to some, and causes gastic upset in others |

As Treecreeper correctly states, this is in the area of what used to be referred to as Macrolepiota rhacodes but is now known as Chlorophyllum rhacodes. It's certainly no M. procera |

Thanks for the update Nick. The new Collins book has it as Chlorophyllum rhacodes |
