TreeWatch Coconut Grove

Two British men were sentenced to more than four years in prison on Tuesday for cutting down one of the most famous trees in England, the Sycamore Gap Tree.

The men were found guilty in May of what a judge called a "deliberate and mindless" act of felling the tree as an apparent joke. The tree stood for nearly 200 years in a picturesque valley in northern England, adjacent to the remnants of Hadrian's Wall, a UNESCO World Heritage site.
