Default Source of Mushroom Compost/Manure - Hull Area

Hi all

Just discovered that a previous source of spent mushroom compost has closed
down.
Used this stuff to improve soil before planting hedging and all the plants
have survived and thrived.

Can anyone direct me to a source of cheap spent mushroom compost or manure
or anything that will help recondition soil before planting?
West Hull would be good, but anywhere reasonably local would do. Quite
happy to pay delivery charge or do multiple car trips as necessary.
Where do local allotment users source this stuff.


This year I am using Clavering Horse manure (Made from spent mushroom
compost) It was fairly cheap and I've found it very good.
Don't know if it's available on-line but I found it in a local garden
centre (South Wales)
Might be worth checking out garden centres near you.
