A spokesman for North Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service said: "York fire crew, being mobile and in the vicinity, responded to a request to help contractors who had been using a drone to survey the outside of the Fishergate Postern Tower, but had then become stuck amongst tree branches, approximately 20 metres from the ground and a potential hazard to persons walking underneath.
"Fire crew used ladders to safely remove the stuck drone which was handed back to the owner."
