This appears to be a tropical of some sort to me and freezing weather is deadly to them. Even if it is not a tropical and possibly a temperate zone tree, it is in full leaf and unprepared to "toughen up." Temperate zone trees are well prepared to handle winter, but they require six months of preparing themselves to do so. Dormancy does NOT happen overnight.

It would be best to keep this tree indoors until the danger of frost and freezes has passed and temperatures are night remain RELIABLY above 45 degrees F.
Bloody poms, why cant you stick to the same weather pattern as the better part of the world *ie Australia?
