Sorry pics have come out on their side, pink part of fungus is facing downwards and top is almost like a bark

Top and bottom are quite hard to touch, many thanks in advance for your help.

    Nut and Dove many thanks , looks very like it and they have been on the tree for a number of years now so obviously is not detrimental as the tree fruits heavily each year. As both tree and fungus are happy it can stay as long as it likes. ☺
