Kueneromycetes mutabilis
I think this is K. mutabilis which is edible. However, Galerina marginata looks very similar and is deadly. Ditiola on Wildaboutbritain says: 'I have had similar problems it the past separating these two fungi as they can both be very variable and wears typical specimens can be easier to separate; atypical specimens can be quite similar. In 'The Fungi of Switzerland' they say: The very poisonous Galerina marginata differs by its smooth stipe which is only longitudinally fibrous (even below the ring), The farinaceous odour and taste and larger verrucose (rough) spores.'
