Beech tree issues

Hi I have a large beech tree in my front garden which has developed a white pattern/stain over the last year. The marks go from the bottom up three quarters of it but is also now going onto the branches. The tree doesn’t look great to me but I know nothing about trees haha. Does anyone know what it could be please?

I don’t know anything about disease on beech trees, but we had something similar. Two years of a whitish stain followed by small sections of bark coming away along with the canopy having a general reduction in leaf. That was one of the trees that blew over a few weeks ago. The rootball seemed weak and little of it came away with the trunk as the tree came down.

Your tree is beside a road so it might be worth getting an inspection from someone suitably in the know as well as making sure your insurance is up to date.
