Probably the biggest water wheel ever built. The Burden wheel at the Nail Works at Troy, NY State.

I have to give it to Ian. It's the site of the old wine cellar at Eumalga near Dubbo NSW which is where my dad was born. Those rusty bits of iron are the hoops off the wine barrels. There were many broken wine bottles.
Next object?
