Well, it doesn't appear on Google maps now or on Google Earth in 2002. The flat top with steps up to it might suggest a base for something, I don't thing it's military in origin - the height would make it too obvious as a target and despite having a reasonable view of the Thames downstream it would be too easily outflanked. So possibly a base for either a bandstand or some form of observatory structure?
