Hi Nigel,
A quick answer is to use ET Geowizards tool (Polygons to Max Inscribed Circles). Version 11.3 is out (I am currently using 11.2);

Overall, it is a helpful program and relatively inexpensive.

Subject: Circles in polygons
Is there a way to automate creating a single maximum-sized circle within each polygon of a parcel layer? The polygons could be any shape.
This would be useful for identifying potential parcels that could contain a Massachusetts Zone I (400’ radius) of a proposed water supply well.
