Photo date? Alton, Staffordshire.
« on: Saturday 28 April 18 12:55 BST (UK) »
Would anyone be able to hazard a guess at the date of this photograph by the clothing on the people featured?  Sorry it's not a great quality photo.  All I know for sure is that is was taken before 1891 in Alton, Staffordshire.
Many thanks :)

Late 1870's into the 80's would be my guess. Never seen 'spirituous liquors' describing spirits before.
