What is the Collar Badge?
Hi all,
Image taken around 1890-1910, white facings, while the detail isn't there, the collar roughly looks like Yorks and Lancs, to my eye anyway.
What do people think?
Thanks,
Stephen

Some similarities, but my photo was taken in Birr, Ireland. I suspect it's someone in the local militia so unlikely to be the Paddington Rifles man.

Thanks for the replies all. After some more research, it appears the chap is wearing a serge jacket, which seems to be what other ranks worn, and if so, then it would have general service buttons.
