On page 2 of the file "Copyright Notice: digital images, photographs and the internet (Copyright Notice Number: 1/2014, updated November 2015)" issued by the United Kingdome Intellectual Property Office (https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/481194/c-notice-201401.pdf_), under the heading " How long does copyright in images or photos last?" is the statement:
Generally speaking, in the UK copyright in images lasts for the life of the creator plus 70 years from the end of the calendar year of their death although the length of the copyright period will depend on when the image was created. That means that images less than 70 years old are still in copyright, and older ones may well be, depending on when the creator died.
Conservatively assuming the photo was taken just before Richard Peacock died in 1889, If the photographer was a person operating a private photographic studio and was aged 16 in 1889 (i.e. born in 1873) their life expectancy, if male, was 44 years -- see the UK Office of National Statistics "Life expectancy at birth, England and Wales, 1841 to 2011 " table at (https://www.ons.gov.uk/peoplepopulationandcommunity/birthsdeathsandmarriages/lifeexpectancies/articles/howhaslifeexpectancychangedovertime/2015-09-09) which equates with death in 1917. A further 70 years equates to 1987. The balance between 2019 and 1987, 32 years, is more than enough to cover any exceptional longevity of the photographer.
