A bizarre-looking fir tree sliced in half during a neighborly dispute over bird droppings has become a popular tourist attraction with its own Google reviews in the Waterthorpe suburb of Sheffield, England.

Three years ago, the now-famous half-cut fir tree of Waterhope made international news headlines for the first time. Located on the edge of Bharat Mistry’s property, it extended its evergreen crown on the driveway of Irene and Graham Lee. The birds nesting in the 25-year-old fir tree had become a nuisance to the Lee’s as they constantly had to clean their driveway of droppings. At first, the two parties involved tried to find an amicable solution, like trimming the branches or installing nets to prevent birds from nesting in it, but since no compromise was reached, the Lees took matters into their own hands and hired an arborist to cut the tree in half and remove its branches from their property. Photos of the odd-looking tree quickly went viral and the tree became a local tourist attraction.

It’s been three years since the half-cut tree of Waterhope drew attention to the Sheffield suburb, but it has proven more than a temporary attraction. Even today, people stop by to take photos and even post the occasional review on Google. It’s unclear whether the branches simply never grew back, or if the Lees just keep trimming them regularly, but the fir tree maintains its unusual look.

“I just think it’s funny. I think it’s been trimmed back again because you’d have thought it would have grown back by now,” one Waterhope woman told The Independent.

“It looks awful. They’re going to be at one another’s throats now, but it’s done, you can’t undo it. We’ve got a war on our hands with them two,” another neighbor said.

According to recent news reports, the two neighbors are still not talking to each other, and Mr. Bharat claims that he is still distraught about how his neighbors chose to deal with the 25-year-old fir tree.

“We pleaded and pleaded with them not to do it, but their mind was made up,” he said. “That tree was coming down. I believe he has the right to cut down anything that is overhanging onto his property. But you have to ask, why after 25 years would you do that?”

“We’ve had a lot of people walking past to look at it, people you can just tell have come out of their way to walk their dog on a different route to have a look. People have stopped to take pictures, there has been a lot posted on social media,” Bharat added.
