    My first reaction was between the World Wars, but it's tricky for a couple of reasons. A lot depends on where. Firstly, what people were wearing in major cities such as London changed much more rapidly than in more distant areas (whether rural or what might be called the Colonies). Secondly, men's clothes, especially formal, changed relatively slowly - that outfit would be pretty much acceptable today!

    That's obviously a professional portrait - is the name of the photographer on the other side? If you can find out when the photographer was in business, that would help. Many of them changed their logos as time went on, which can help a bit more.

    Thanks Lesley...Nothing on the back unfortunately. I agree the outfit still acceptable today which doesn't help. Is the surround significant or just done to 'pretty' the photo up?
