Hairy anamorph on plywood with beaked curved conidia

Bonjour,
I found this anamorphic fungus on old plywood in our allotment garden in Sheffield, N. England. It was approx 1 mm diameter, roughly sperical, covererd densely with setae uo to 150 um. It contained a mass of curved conidia 12-15 x 2.5 um, with beaks at each end visible on oil-immersion. On hydration in a moist chamber, the conidiophores tended to open/split to reveal the whitish conidial mass. I cannot find any matches in Ellis & Ellis Microfungi on Land Plants.
I am compiling a list of fungi found on the allotment gardens over the past 20 years in order to add to the data illustrating the biodiversity value of allotment gardens in large cities. Any help in allocating this fungus to any level would be appreciated,
Merci beaucoup,
Steve

Merci Mathias!
My conidia measure a little smaller but the description and illustration in Ellis & Ellis no. 1321 look right for Pseudolachnea hispidula.
Here is a section which looks like the illustration.
