Two British men, Daniel Graham and Adam Carruthers, were sentenced to over four years in prison for cutting down England’s iconic Sycamore Gap Tree in 2023.

The nearly 200-year-old tree, beside Hadrian’s Wall and featured in the film “Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves,” was felled in minutes with a chainsaw.

The act, called “deliberate and mindless” by the judge, caused over £620,000 in damage and shocked people across the UK, CBS News has reported.

Efforts are underway to regrow the tree from its seeds.
