Well, Robin Hood was supposed to have been running around in the 12th century, so I suppose it was a bit ahistorical in the context of the guy anyway.

I think it’s called the Robin Hood Tree because it was in a Robin Hood film.

If they move quickly on it, I imagine that they could probably use cuttings from the existing tree

That’d be a nice touch, from one tree dozens could spring up. Seems fitting.
