Is my tree diseased?

Hi! I have a beautiful copper beech in my garden but have noticed as it's been turning this autumn there are leaf spots all over it and it doesn't seem to be turning at the same rate as other beeches in the area. 

Anyone have any experience of this and able to advise?

Thanks in advance!image

    It's been very dry for a good month if not more and a lot of trees and shrubs have suffered as a result. Some trees have been shutting down early and early leaf loss has affected so many plants I've come across. I think all you can do is let nature take its course.

  • Definitely a copper beech and not a standard beechy beech! 

    Was deep red a short while back just can't find pictures.

    Besides which, I'm pretty sure the TPO isn't wrong! 

    Thanks for help guys I'll just have to see how it survives winter I guess!
