Initially you'd think Phlebopus marginatus - but the whiteish/greyish pores say 'no'. Intriguing.

Comment from Pam O'Sullivan "Some specimens have been noted to have occluded (stuffed) pores (a pales coloured to white coating over pores when immature). Not often noted but would explain the colour of pores in this sighting" - so I'll confirm it as your suggestion, John.
