Ancient Sherwood Forest Oak Falls
The 1,200-year-old Major Oak in Sherwood Forest, linked to Robin Hood legends, has died after failing to produce new leaves. Scientists attribute the decline to soil compaction from millions of visitors and increasingly hot, dry summers, with the tree showing signs of irreversible damage despite efforts to revive it. The tree will remain standing as a natural monument and continue to support the forest ecosystem.
