I have a number of old OS maps and books of antiquity, covering the period which springs to my mind, however they are all in safe storage; one thought covers look out for ships in difficulty, but why so large in diameter? Maybe someone can help you, looks VERY interesting.

Just a wild idea. Was it erected to assist with the removal of scrap from HMS Warspite in the late 40's 1950's?If you visit the following flicker website there is a similar post on one of the pictureshttp://www.flickr.com/photos/13150208@N05/sets/72157602678212659/detail/
