Major Oak Falls Silent
Description
The legendary Major Oak in Sherwood Forest, rumored to have sheltered Robin Hood, may have died — not from battle, but from well-meaning crowds. Over centuries, foot traffic compacted the soil, starving its roots of water, while climate change added to the stress. Though gone, the ancient tree still stands as a symbol of folklore and nature’s fragility, its legacy enduring even as its roots decay.
