Are you sure it's honey fungus? There are other fungi that attack dead and dying wood - it's how such things decompose and disappear.
Honey fungus will affect roses, but clematis are not thought to be susceptible - here is a list of the plants most commonly attacked and others that are sometimes susceptible http://www.rhs.org.uk/Media/PDFs/Advice/HoneyFungusList
Good luck.
Gardening in Central Norfolk on improved gritty moraine over chalk ... free-draining.
It depends what you want to plant there Sam. I wouldn't plant sycamores there again if that's what you're thinking of. You need to find something you like that is resistant to the honey fungus.
Is honey fungus really Phytophthera, Verdun? That's definitely potato blight etc., which is very different. I thought it was Armillaria or something like that?

If I fell sycamores with hony fungus can I replant in the same area.
even if I wait a year or two.

There's a list here showing those most susceptible and those that show good resistance https://www.rhs.org.uk/advice/pdfs/honey-fungus-host-list

I wouldn't plant sycamore anyway!
