Tree of the Year: Wonky wych elm in County Down wins title

Newcastle's 'Bendy Tree' has been crowned UK Tree of the Year 2026 - the first time a tree in Northern Ireland has won the national title since it was launched in 2014.

The 150-year-old wych elm on the central promenade took more than 30% of the national public vote.

The theme of the Woodland Trust's annual competition was Against All Odds, with trees across the UK shortlisted for being impressive, beautiful and sometimes baffling examples of how nature can survive adversity.

No jail and no life time driving ban. May have been on bath salts. Good to know we are safe from drivers like these for 9 months/s
