74 - yes but I don't think she's 16 - maybe 20s.

A guess from me ....

I think the younger woman could be as old as 30s and even early 40s. I think her arms look a bit older, if that makes sense.  ;D

The older woman may be late 60s or into her 70s.

Yes, I’d say the younger woman looks 30’s to me.

The younger one looks to have a ring on the 4th finger of her right hand. It might not be significant here, but in some European countries that's the usual finger for a wedding ring.

Bartle, Bilton, Bingley, Campbell, Craven, Emmott, Harcourt, Hirst, Kellet(t), Kennedy,
Meaburn, Mennile/Meynell, Metcalf(e), Palliser, Robinson, Rutter, Shipley, Stow, Wilkinson

Thanks , it was suggested that they were gran and grandaughter , if so the ages should be 16 and 74 , if the younger one is older it throws that theory out .
