Men jailed for felling UK's iconic Sycamore Gap tree

Two men have each been jailed for more than four years for cutting down the Sycamore Gap tree in the United Kingdom. The tree is a much-loved and well-known global landmark whose dramatic silhouette had featured in a Hollywood movie. The sycamore, estimated to be almost 200 years old, stood at the centre of a dramatic dip in the landscape alongside Hadrian's Wall in northern England, making it a popular spot for photographers, hikers and even marriage proposals.
