Good option fisheye.
Again without actually seeing the tree in person and from all angles its a REAL tough call.
I am not a big proponant of bolting trees. I believe unless its a tree of historical nature or a specimen that once its time has come then its time has come.
However as Tina and Em suggested get an Arborist down there if you really want to save it.
Tina I don't believe the tree is too big to bolt. But again I was fooled at first by the first photo that's why I asked for more.
In the first photo of the second set in the background is another tree that looks like it could be a future problem for dwellings by splitting. That could also be a bolting candidate.
Hope it works out OP.
