We have a weeping salix (grafted onto trunk) which after 4 years' happy
growth has just turned brown this year after initially coming into leaf
as
normal. Can anyone tell me if there is a common disease they are prone
to,
or what else may be the cause. Have I lost the tree for good?

Salix arachnose, a fungal infection. It will grow again, you can spray
for it, but often the tree is too large. It also affects poplars and was
featured on last weeks GW.
