I don't think that is in any way a 'simple' antenna mount.
It looks to be a modification of the original "Aerial Base No.1" mounting (used with the Wireless Set No.11) where there was a tension spring to hold the insulator itself in the "cup" of the mounting. This was then modified later by adding the square adapter and flat plate on top to take Aerial Base No.8 (and later No.10) when the Wireless Set No.19 replaced the earlier set. The 7-hole (for the six mounting bolts and central feed cable) mounting that was introduced with Aerial Base No.8 has remained the standard to the present day, nearly 80 years after introduction.)
