David.
The hatches you refer to are for the salvage buoys fitted on the early VIICs. The buoys were fitted in a pressuretight container under the casingdeck fore port side in front of the conning tower and aft of the conningtower. The hatches could be opened and the buoys could be released from inside the pressurehull and were removed after 1942.
