Ridgeway Beech Toadstool

We found this toadstool during a walk in a small beech wood near the Ridgeway Trail in South Oxfordshire.

It was growing in a niche in a beech tree. The dark patch is rainwater overflowing from the crevice.

The image brought to mind a font overflowing or a shrine from ancient times.
