A huge (12ft 6" / 3.8m diameter) hand carved double circle of granite in four sections. A horse would have been linked to a central post and pulled a mill stone over the apples in the grooved channel. The pulp was then removed and put then put through a press to make a cider or Calvados.
 
From Normandy, in France, this huge press is in particularly good condition and would make a very impressive turning circle outside the entrance to a country house
 
In four sections it could be assembled with waterproof joints and filled with water and water plants. With a statue, a tree, or other raised feature in the middle this could be a glorious addition to a gravel drive.
