Members of the public can once again go and hug the Sycamore gap tree as a small piece of the felled trunk is set to go on permanent display.
The illegal chopping down of the world famous tree sparked global outrage in September 2023.
Two men, Daniel Graham, 39, and Adam Carruthers, 32, were found guilty of taking it down earlier this year.
Now part of its trunk will be put on display at a Northumberland visitor centre as a permanent memorial to its senseless destruction is unveiled.
Artist Charlie Whinney has been commissioned to create an artwork in tribute to the much-loved tree which stood beside Hadrian's Wall and was a symbol of Northumberland, a place for family memories and a beautiful link to the natural world.
