Know what's wrong with my Apple tree?

This grey/white mould(?) appeared during the very wet winter, I'm not sure what it is. Was very concerned it was Honey Fungus but it doesn't go beneath the surface of the bark and (from what I understand) Honey fungus works under the bark. The bark does seem squashier than the bark that is free of it. It doesn't seem to be affecting the moss or ivy that is growing up the tree.  Any ideas? I'm a bit worried about it :s

    Thanks for the reply guys - pansyface I always thought lichens could be peeled away - thank you for the link by the way, I've been scrolling through trying to find one that might match.

    Fire - I must say I didn't realise your post was a link straight away and had a bit of a panic thinking mytrees were done for - thanks for the clarification :)
