Hi, Dave-<br />
<br />
Did the damage to the Beeches occur just in the last few days, that
is, was there no damage before the recent very cold nights?<br />
<br />
You may want to consider the Beech Leaf-mining Weevil, <i>Orchestes
fagi</i>. It has killed many beeches here in the Waverley area.
Surviving beeches in my neighbourhood are all showing obvious leaf
damage this Spring.<br />
