In the UK, an attacker cut down the famous "Robin Hood Tree"

In the UK, the "Robin Hood Tree", which is one of the most famous and photographed trees in the country, was cut down on the night of September 28. This was announced by the administration of the Northumberland National Park.

The tree, which is 300 years old, became famous after it appeared in the adventure film "Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves" in 1991. In 2016, the famous plane tree even received the title of "Tree of the Year".

Later it turned out that the tree was cut down by a 16-year-old teenager, he was arrested, but his motives and logic are still unclear.

The National Fund of Britain said that they will collect seeds and cuttings of a 300-year-old tree, besides new shoots can come from a preserved stump.

The famous object has already been renamed on Google Maps — now it is listed not as a "plane tree", but as a "stump".
