This galaxy is NGC 5701 (select "New General Catalog" from "Backyard Astronomy"). Apparently the professional astronomers think it's interesting as well. Google "NGC 5701", there's an article about its structure:

Apparently NGC 4608 is considered similar to your guy. Pull it up, it has a much stronger bar than your NGC 5701.
