JBT - large fungal fruiting body [6 of 6]

JBT - large fungal fruiting body [6 of 6]
A large fruiting body from an unidentified fungus - growing in grass under coniferous trees (mostly Scots Pine or maybe Larch) in a "windbreak" plantation. [date : 6th August]
There were a considerable number of other examples, all the others were smaller in diameter.

For scale, the trainer to the bottom right is approximately 100mm / 10cm / 4" across, as measured just forward of where the lacing starts.

Attempting to identify these fungi gave me over half a dozen potential names.
