PHS tree

...sad to see the tree outside Robert Dyas has been damaged, it has been bent over horizontal to the ground, probably some drunken idiot last night

Does the tree still have a stake or support?

Why do some people behave like this?😡 Do they get some kind of sick satisfaction from destroying things? Morons.🤬

I saw it a short while ago and was heartbroken.I wonder if somebody tried to climb it and the tree was not strong enough.  A side shoot seems to have survived.  I doubt the main trunk of the tree, the one damaged, will do.  Despicable!I hope cameras from one of the shops caught whoever it was damaging the tree.

Couldn't agree more (a subject to add to cats and cars, if not Brexit and Mr Blobby). For those who can't get there, you can see from the photos below the extent of the damage, and from the second one it's obvious this wasn't the result of a vehicle hitting it but some utter moron (can't use a more appropriate word or I'll be banned) "having a laugh."

They had builders working on the shop next door, and still are. The new dentist.

The perpetrator can be heavily fined by the Council.

An over zealous tree hugger perhaps 😁😁

Looks like someone's done some sort of repair job on it? Still looks as though it's alive (judging by the leaves) but not sure how it will work out longer term ...

Oh the wonders of gaffer tape.

They could have used Gorilla tape.
