Unidentifed Fern

Can anyone help me with the name of this fern which was growing as a splendid backdrop to a Polypore fungus?



Hard Fern - Blechnum spicant maybe?

You are quite right, the fern does make such a great background - almost waterfall like!
I would have said Blechnum spicant, and if it isn't Blechnum spicant it must be awfully close.
