Hi Luke I don't think you've got too much to worry about. This is quite an old tree and it's not unusual for them to have bare branches at the sides like this. Especially when they have competition from neighbouring trees and buildings. I expect it sheds quite a lot, they usually do. I would get a good tree surgeon to clean it up and remove that dead lower growth. There's really not a lot else you can do. Best wishes Andy
