Photograph would be useful, but is it just some of the lower leaves? Because leaf drop on evergreens does occur quite naturally. Which kind of laurel is it - spotted (Aucuba japonica) or plain green (Prunus laurocerasus).

And is it just the lower leaves - hows the growth at the top, it is putting out new? I note you live in Essex, where I suspect it's been as dry as it has here in West London - could it be suffering from drought?
