Agreed. The original Engineer should have designed the foundations taking into account the tree to current standards. Subsidence is unacceptable on a modern building, no matter how dry the summer.
@villa-ru I feel for you, good luck!

Family friend had an extension re-instated for this very reason.
Obviously hugely disruptive.
