To me, there doesn't appear to be a lot to go on, however, I've tidied it a bit to bring it back up the board.

Early 1900s from the dress and appears to be a snapshot rather than a professional photo. Couple would be in their forties?

Around WW1 & possibly up to 1920. They would have to be in their mid-late 40's & they don't look that old to me.

I was thinking they look mid thirties judging by the woman but they look to be in bright sunlight so she could be a lot younger but scrunching her face up!

Thanks for all the advice . I will send a picture I have confirmed is  them in later years (possibly late forties early 1950s but not after 1954) .Do people think this is the same couple ?

Very hard to say if they are the same people. But the woman in both photos does have a high forehead.
