Tree-mendous!

A sycamore laced with shoes, an oak bound in chains and a yew said to be more than 1,000 years old are among the contenders vying to be named England's Tree of the Year 2020.

Ten trees have been shortlisted and members of the public are invited to vote for their favourite.

The Woodland Trust's annual competition, now in its seventh year, shines a light on the nation's best trees to help drive up interest in their value and protection. (Daily Mail)
