A 16-year-old boy has been arrested after a famous tree next to Hadrian’s Wall was cut down.
The world-famous tree which sat next to the iconic monument in Northumberland was cut down in a “malicious act of vandalism”, that sparked outrage from nature lovers across the UK.
The Sycamore Gap – which is believed to have been deliberately chopped down last night - is one of the UK’s most photographed trees.
