Information about old Photo...Please

I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this thread but here goes. I recently found an old photo in an old book, I think it was being used as a bookmark, It shows three soldiers in what I think are WW1 uniforms sat in a doorway. There is a name and address on the back- G Rotherham, Station Rd Padiham. I will try and up load it.

Any help would be good. Thanks in advance. Dave.

When are you going to display the photo.
I'm always interested in WWI soldiers, they might be some one I recognise.

Hi slim-T


The three men are wearing officers uniform

need a better quality picture to identify
the lapel badges which would show their
regiment, noticed that two of them have a
medal strip above their right breast pocket.
I don't think they are from the Greater
Accrington area.
