For the past several winters there have been scarlet elf cup fungi on a pile of fallen twigs by the former Tettenhall Station by the Railway Walk at Newbridge. The numbers of fruiting bodies have been falling each year, perhaps because there is less and less to feed on in the wood substrate. But they are still there.
This year there is also a fresh patch of the fruiting bodies, a short distance further along the footpath. Maybe these grew from spores spread by the earlier ones.
