14 Things Only People From Northumberland Can Be Proud Of

11. The Tree From Robin Hood, Prince Of Thieves

Near the village of Housesteads in Northumberland lives a large Sycamore tree adjacent to a portion of Hadrian's Wall. It isn't a particularly special looking tree, and it's not the only one in the area, but it's a famous landmark all the same. That's thanks to its inclusion in Kevin Costner's Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves, which has ensured that the tree has become a tourist attraction it its own right, as fans look to recreate the famous scene.
