Michael B the leaves, flowers and buds suggest one of the subspecies of Eucalyptus leucoxylon, but the bark is all wrong - were the upper branches smooth and white?

Hi Michael. I revisited the tree today, and have posted another sighting, including photos of the upper branches as well as the fruit. The upper branches were smooth but not white. See sighting number 1942921.
