Sycamore Gap, Hadrian's Wall
From £32.00
The sycamore at Sycamore Gap stands silhouetted against the evening sky, two sheep wandering the wall beneath it, one of the most photographed trees in Britain before it was felled in 2023. A quiet record of how the gap used to look.

The sycamore at Sycamore Gap grew in a dramatic dip along Hadrian's Wall and became one of the most photographed trees in Britain, familiar to millions after its appearance in the 1991 film Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves. It was felled overnight in September 2023 in an act of vandalism that made national headlines; shoots have since been grown from its seeds and cuttings as part of efforts to keep its legacy alive.
