This is the plan for today. I think. The spindle is clearly unhappy. No leaves at all this year, but when I scratch the bark, there’s green underneath, so perhaps all hope isn’t lost yet. I’ll put it in a pot and give it about a year in a more sheltered position to see if it will come around. (The leaves weaving through it are toad lilies)

Thanks @gjones, and hopefully yours will come back too. I didn’t actually get around to do the move today (story of my life - I get distracted and start doing all kinds of other things), but I’ll probably get the job done tomorrow. I think it might be too windy where it is, it’s the only thing I can think of that might be bothering it, so I’ll put it in a corner somewhere and hope for the best.
