Sorry for the poor quality of the photos but it was very windy ...

Hi loopy .. and also tpm ... thank you both for responding.
tpm, the picture was taken at a restaurant we frequent about 7-8 minutes from us in the back of beyond here in Algarve (20 minutes from the sea and 20 minutes from the mountains) ... and I think you have it spot on with Eucalyptus leucoxylon. We do have a lot of strange and wonderful species grown here. Thank you ...

Yep I pretty sure that is Eucalyptus leucoxylon I seem to remember pruning some at Ventnor Botanic Gardens *Rummages around for photo*
