Waveney Forest
Parmelia sulcata?
Black rizines. Black underside.
A very wet Physconia grisea
Granular soredia on the edges of the lobes.
White rizines seen
Goes grey- brown when dry.
Cladonia Sp
Smooth Bristle-moss (Orthotrichum striatum)
16 peristome teeth
Flat-leaved Scalewort (Radula complanata)
Ramalina farinacea
Beech (Fagus sylvatica)
Probably a boundary group made up of a number of trees
Decidedly muscular as Beech often are.
Inosculation or natural grafting. Multiple trees planted very close together can grow into a single, large thick trunked tree.
As they grow together the bark scrapes away and the cambium layers fuse together.
Known as bundle planting
also sometimes called
Planting a 'gemel' (Pair)
17th Century landscape design practice recommend by John Evelyn
Evidence of Bundle Planting from the Dendrochronicle

A bit confusing this as the leaf above shows no teeth.
But as Julia pointed out (Thank you)
Lf bases are very narrowly decurrent (had to look long and hard on this)
No teeth on the fresh new leaves of the specimen (but found toothed leaves amongst older parts). Smith says: 'margins sometimes entire in plants in dry habitats.', although teeth maybe 'obsolete' in P. rostratum.
Laminal cells porose (not or hardly so in P.rostratum).
Southern Crestwort (Lophocolea semeteres)
Tetraphis Moss (Tetraphis pellucida)
Bristly Haircap (Polytrichum piliferum) - [excurrent nerve] with Juniper Haircap (Polytrichum juniperimum) in the background in the upper of the two images.

Leaf insertion runs straight along the line of the stem?
