Macrolepiota procera?
It's one of two species I think, both of which are edible. In America there's another similar one which is poisonous (green-spored lepiota). I fried these up in butter and they were AWESOME. I ate half a smallish cap well cooked in butter to see whether I have allergic reaction (some people are allergic to Shaggy Parasols) these were in the fridge over night and I ate the rest the next day probably. I also ate this spotting in the same way: http://www.projectnoah.org/spottings/214... There are lots more similar species M. procera can be confused with, a look in a field guide shows similar species from various genera Chlorophyllum, Leucoagaricus
bb30a - location could be quite wrong; difficult to locate on the map
