Found by fishing boat on West Coast of Scotland, can anyone help with identification and what we should do with it?

There is a book published called Off Scotland and it lists ship sinkings and known aeroplane crashes that might be able to help with identification of what it came from based on location. Where exactly off the west coast? Big stretch of coastline. Those images aren't very clear so don't offer anything useful. Got any better pics?
 
Salut!
Je pense que c'est une hélice de moteur Bristol parce que la rotation est une vue de face. Bristol Beaufighter ou un bombardier Halifax ... ou u
n autre avion avec un moteur Bristol ... pourrait aussi être hélice Gnôme-Rhône, mais je ne pense pas qu'ils ont été trouvés!

I'm going to guess Rotol based on the central actuating piston that is missing the dome. The center mechanism lacks the spiral cam found in a Hamilton Standard or licensed de Havilland Hydromatic prop, and it does not appear to be an electrically actuated prop. Check the i for matching details here: Rotol Propellers
