Subject: Which WWI UK regiment from photograph please

Classification: Military
Surnames: Degnan

Family folklore has my great grandad William Henry Degnan serving in a Scottish Regiment (picture in a kilt, which is long lost), but he was a 38 years old bootmaker from Leeds. All my other ancestors served in the West Yorkshire Regiments.

I do have a medal card for a WHD from the Argyll & Southerland highlanders and also a post card with Military personnel on it sent by him during the war....the uniform would seem to be the same as a photo I also have of him (all attached).

If anyone could confirm the uniform, that would be fantastic.

Many thanks in advance.
