Default Undated Yeomen

Could an expert date this image and confirm identification of their regiment? It's currently on sale on eBay. Thanks. Mike

Mike, looks like Northumberland Hussars and probably circa 1911-13 at pre WW1 Territorial/Yeomanry camp.

Its the NH (The Noodles) post 1920. I am not 100% but I think pre WW1 they still had their grey bands on the khaki caps ...as below.

Thank you both very much. We are searching for good images of 1935-45 vintage Yeomen of Northumberland, Suffolk and Norfolk - for the concluding Yeomanry articles in Militaria magazine. Mike

Looking again I would agree with Griff that it is a between the wars photo - possibly even mid 1930s.
