Looking at these photos I does not seem likely that they show your grandfather if he died in 1927 aged 45. The men in these photos are around 20 so if it's your grandfather they must have been taken around 1900 and the uniform details are completely wrong for that date.

I would agree with Marc that they could be Life Guards but I'd suggest that they show men of the regiment in Palestine in around 1940 whilst serving there with the 4th Cavalry Brigade which was at that date still a mounted regiment.

Sorry if that contradicts family history!
