The hydrogen peroxide is a good start but might not rid rid of the mould as it could come back.  Chemspec 429+ works well.

Sorry I should have said this was to remove residual marks after initial treatment to kill the spores.

It was nearly bedtime and I was being lazy

Once the black spots appear then the mould has matured and has digested an amount of the substance of the fibre causing permanent damage and possible weakness. As Jamie says Peroxide might remove some of the discolouration caused by the spores however beware of pre existing damage.
