I haven't seen that badge before, mate, but the Latin Motto is correct for Trinity House (Trinitas In Unitate).

Looks like a sailing ship in each quadrant, the Trinity House badge I own has this too.

To further identify the gentleman (and his insignia) in question:
In the April 1917 edition of the Navy List he is listed under "Royal Naval Reserve, Commanders, Retired" as Lawrence Hugh Crawford, C.B., R.D. (Captain, Trinity House) In the 1916 Hazell's Annual under the entry for Trinity House, he is listed as an Elder Brethren. Quote:
His name does come up in a family tree https://www.pellew.com/Family%20Tree/Family%20Tree.htm Quote:
