I agree with Les Wires. It is certainly a set of amateur radio antennas and I think he has the bands correctly identified i.e. 10/15/20 metre three element beam, 144 Mhz (2 metre) vertical beam and 6 metre horizontal beam.
Thanks all. Maybe if it on the coast it is used for marine reception. Looks a pricey setup. When I were a lad we just used a harmonic length of long wire!

It won't be used for marine, that is generally just above 150MHz and wouldn't need such large aerials. It will be directional amateur equipment for worldwide transmissions regardless of how close it is to the coast.
When you're talking about top band a long wire is still the standard way most people go, cheap and cheerful, get as close to 160m cable as possible (a friend has nearly achieved it by using several metal slinkies that work very well).

Looks like an amateur radio directional beam to me. But I am no expert.
