Hi Olwyn, This photo was almost certainly taken at Armentieres probably in late July or early August and certainly before the 8th August which is when Kearton was wounded and shipped off to Hospital and thence invalided back to New Zeqaland. So the group could not have been together after the 8th August 1916. Although Armentieres was a quiet section (at the time), the trenches were in very poor shape having not been maintained by their previous occupants and so it was the job of the Kiwis to carry out repairs. Murphy was eventually killed at Armentieres on 29 September 1916 and Turnbull severely wounded on 17 September 1916.
