LONDON – It was neither Britain’s biggest tree nor its oldest. But the majestic sycamore that stood for 150 years along a stretch of Hadrian’s Wall in northern England was one of the most beloved.

Little has been said about the case, including a possible motive, to protect the integrity of the trial and rights of the accused. “The prosecution say the tree was deliberately felled on Sept. 28 last year and the resultant fall damaged Hadrian´s Wall, a UNESCO World Heritage Site,” Brown said. “The prosecution say these defendants are responsible as part of a joint enterprise.”

The tree became famous after being featured in Kevin Costner’s 1991 film “Robin Hood: Prince Of Thieves,” and was a big draw for tourism. Cape walked to the tree on her first and second dates with her future husband. They later watched their daughter take her first steps there. And after her mother and sister both died in 2020, she met her brother-in-law and nephews there when they couldn´t gather indoors during the COVID-19 lockdown.
