FUNGUS FORAY, 1939
It had been one of the driest summers and
autumns in living memory and I was expecting
there would be very few fungi in Epping Forest.
We met it the Robin Hood, in Epping Forest, and
then drove to Strawberry Hill, where we parked.
We walked up the stream north-east of Straw—
berry Hill and followed it to where we had some
lunch, returning approximately the same way.
We then drove to the Epping Forest Conservation
Centre, where we named, labelled, laid out the
specimens we had collected, and had a cup of
tea.
There was a weekend foray being run by Peter
James of the Natural History Museum. We
looked at what they had collected and they
looked at our collection. Peter James also
helped name some of our specimens.
