Sycamore Gap

… or the way it was… This is an old photo of the famous sycamore tree which I came across again and duly sent to the national trust.
I was delighted to read that following the felling of the much-loved Sycamore Gap tree in September, the National Trust has said that the seeds and cuttings taken from the fallen tree are showing positive signs of being viable for propagating. Also the trunk could sprout again too.

The partnership is inviting the public to submit their photos and memories of the tree to sycamoregap@nationaltrust.org.uk. These recollections will add to the hundreds of messages and memories shared in a temporary reflection space opened in the immediate aftermath of the felling.
A spokesman said, “Any photos and memories we receive will be used to help create potential future exhibitions, inform our next steps for honouring the tree and aid the ambition of creating 3D imaging of the tree.”
