Armstrong Park, Jesmond Dene, Newcastle upon Tyne
Ongoing
In Armstrong Park stands a massive sycamore tree bedecked with thousands of shoes. In recent years local students have taken to hurling their shoes into the tree to celebrate their graduation but reports of the Shoe Tree go back at least decades with some claiming the landmark has endured for centuries. With the tree now entirely covered, the shoes have begun to spread throughout the park.
