Paul,
No the caption is not correct. The photograph is taken post-1881, hence the reason why the two N.C.O.'s are wearing jampot cuffs. Look carefully at the box inside the tent with the helmet perched on top of it - part of the inscription reads 'Sergt. ... 1st Welch Regt.' The old 41st were in your neck of the woods in mid-1880's, there are a number of photographs of the unit in your area - a well-known one is that of their mounted infantry visiting Isandlwana.
