Land based torpedo tubes? Or are they just being stored there before being fitted on a ship?

Tyne & Wear Archives & Museums said:
They might have been there for torpedo trials. We recently added an image of a torpedo being fired from a similar spot www.flickr.com/photos/twm_news/18855229355/in/dateposted/.
