Seeing one hundred people recognize the loss of that tree feels like a small vindication for the Gaddum family legacy. I keep thinking about how that monkey puzzle was the first thing they planted.

Absolute disgrace. That tree was a landmark and people loved it. You dont just cut down history because of some old design plan. Shame on you.
Ridiculous decision. Grown for years just to be chopped down for no good reason. Totally unnecessary waste of taxpayer money.
EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED. You are meant to be protecting the landscape not destroying it. Complete lack of respect for the area.
Just another example of bureaucrats ignoring the public. Keep the rest of the trees safe at least.
I grew up visiting this place and that tree was always my favorite. Why ruin something so beautiful? Breaks my heart honestly.

My kids always look for that tree when we visit. Its part of what makes Brockhole special. So sad it is gone now.
