May be Trametes versicolor but wait for more experienced confirmation.
Hi Andrew
I think it's Chondrostereum purpureum.
As you say, pretty common this time of year on deciduous wood.
There's another purpley coloured bracket called Trichaptum abietinum present this time of year that can be mistaken for C.purpureum but it always grows on conifers and has pores on it's underside rather than a smooth surface.
Cheers,
Nick
