Free Photo Restoration & Date Old Photographs / Photograph by J P Bamber Blackpool - is the content 1921?

The photographer JPB was aged 19 in 1901 census.

Any estimates on the date of the photo please? Is it likely to be a reprint of an earlier photo?

Technical Help / Desktop background slideshow - Windows 10

For years I have had my slideshow changing every 10 seconds.

Now, suddenly, W10 doesn't allow anything faster than a change every minute.  >:(

Handwriting Deciphering & Recognition / What was his occupation?
« on: Friday 28 August 15 12:12 BST (UK)  »
1841 census, Croydon HO107/1078-8/46/30

Arthur Arthur

Address was Barrack Field, but no neighbours appear to be in the  military (apart from his future father-in-law, Henry Kingshott, on the previous page), so he need not be military either.

Although age 20 could indicate up to 24, he was aged 20 (max).

What does "N Officer" mean.

What is the significance of "300"? (If that's what it says)

When he married the following year, he was a railway guard and by 1851 Station Inspector in Lincs.

Burials from Belton in Axholme in 1812.

The vicar seemingly was not a fan of illegitimacy-

It was suggested at some time that this was my grandfather.  It isn't :)

When do you think it was taken?

Thanks :)
