 SOME BASTARD HAS JUST GONE AND CUT THIS TREE DOWN. WHY?

I'm feeling in a bit of a #monochrome mood this week, so this is my offering for #ThickTrunkTuesday. 
This is Sycamore Gap, on Hadrian's Wall in Northumberland. It's a fine tree but the place is only called Sycamore Gap on maps because of someone, when the OS were remapping the area, who was asked if the spot had a name.
This is said to be the most photographed tree in the UK.
