Information about our surveys of fungi at Tyntesfield, a National Trust Estate near Bristol, is also provided. Regular monthly audits have been conducted there since October 2005. These have identified more than 700 different species and have revealed that the lawns around the House are an internationally important site for Waxcap fungi (Hygrocybe spp).
The North Somerset and Bristol Fungus Group is affiliated to the Association of British Fungus Groups and to the the British Mycological Society.
