Since September 2023, a police investigation has been ongoing to find out who is behind the vandalism of the landmark.
Six months on since the famous Sycamore Gap tree is believed to have been deliberately felled, ITV Tyne Tees looks back at what has happened since.Sycamore Gap is the name of a site along Hadrian's Wall in rural Northumberland where the single sycamore tree once stood in a dip between the hills.
In 1991, Sycamore Gap provided a setting for the film Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves, which starred Kevin Costner, Morgan Freeman and Alan Rickman.Over the years, the location of the tree became personal to many people, becoming a hotspot for proposals, stargazers and walkers alike.People around the world also reacted to the news, with the hashtag #SycamoreGap trending across multiple social media platforms as people shared their pictures and memories.
Insp Benson replied: “The investigation is ongoing. I’m hoping we can have answer to that soon. That is the best way I can answer that at the moment.”A section of the tree is set to go on display at The Sill in Northumberland National Park before the anniversary of the felling. Furthermore, the National Trust, which owns the land where the tree stood, salvaged young twigs and seeds thrown to the ground when the tree was felled.
