Bill,
I gather this one is in heavy clay soil subject to flooding and drying
out, I'm waiting to see if I get instructed and can visit the site to get
soil samples etc
Will

Hi Will,
You may be right, but my 'successful' tree, which was a small 5l pot
specimen, was planted in really rubbish site conditions and has most likely
been subjected to some fairly questionable pruning practices/care, possibly
even including de-icing salt on the paved entrance to the church. Its
position west of the building though has always always protected it from
those early morning rays...
Regards,
Bill

is down to a combination of poor soil, exposure, pruning, poor trees
and probable lack of care, its going to make an interesting case
