Very hard to date. Unlike women's fashion's that changed a lot  :o .....well men not so much. He appears to be wearing evening wear (if that tie is truly white..hard to tell) and is quite a dapper gentleman...... ;D It's really hard to see the collar which might help to date it...sorry  ???

Hi Indi, about the date... I have an old  photo which is mounted in exactly the same way as yours and it was dated at 1903 +  Your man looks about the right age for that. :)

Thanks Sherlock.

Its useful to have an approximate date.
That would put him in the right place and time for the Boer War
