By Matthew Weaver Verified| The Guardian Verified Toby Carvery has been threatened with legal action by a council over the felling of an ancient oak in a park in north London. The restaurant chain is facing national outrage after its decision to fell the up to 500-year-old tree without warning on 3 April. On Wednesday, Enfield council, which had leased the land on which the tree stood for a Toby Carvery car park, escalated its dispute with the company by challenging its rationale for the felling and signalling its plan to sue.
By Matthew Weaver Verified| The Guardian Verified The sudden felling of one of the oldest and largest oak trees in London has been reported to police, as campaigners renewed calls for better protection for such nationally significant trees. The oak in Whitewebbs park in Enfield was up to 500 years old, with a trunk that was more than six metres in circumference. It was listed on the Woodland Trust inventory of ancient trees, but was not the subject of a tree preservation order.
