Please help, is my tree dying

[London_Garden_85]

Hello All,

im hoping one of you knowledgeable folk can help me work out whats wrong with my tree.

Over the last 2 weeks I have notices that lots of the leaves are dying and falling off, I may be wrong but I don't remember this happening any other year, the tree is green all year round normally.

i don't know what tree it is but have attached some photos.

many thanks for any advise you can give

Check the trunk for damage. Don't spray any herbicide on the lawn surrounding the tree.

I don't know what kind of tree it is either.

It looks like a shrub to me. I don't recognize it. If you can figure out what kind of shrub or tree it is, that will make it easier to diagnose the problem.
