I've seen something similar that was used to anchor log booms. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Log_boom They would attach a bunch of logs together across the river and collect a whole lot of logs behind it. Then in the spring when the waters were at the highest they would run all the logs downriver to a distant sawmill.

But seriously, in this case it could be anything. You would be better of doing research at the local library.
