Daniel Graham and Adam Carruthers were sentenced to more than 4 years in prison for cutting down the iconic Sycamore Gap Tree in a "deliberate and mindless" act.

Court should break for lunch and then resume at about 14:00 BST with the judge giving her sentencing remarks, ending with the passing down of the actual sentences. The single sycamore tree grew in a natural dip in the countryside along Hadrian's Wall in Northumberland, close to the village of Once Brewed.

Two British men who felled the beloved Sycamore Gap tree that had stood nearly 150 years were sentenced Tuesday to four years and three months in prison, minus time served.
