Was there a mill up river at one time? I could see that being used to lock the bearing in place when not in use. But then again, I don't know anything about mills, so I could just be making this up.
Take every price I say with a grain of salt...

rockandrollrods, that was a good guess, I can picture it being used for that purpose.

I think it may have been a porcelain insulator for a power line that has just been broken and ground down by the water current.
