The open windows suggest a warm day, even a scorcher. Not the sort of day to be standing sentry in a heavy uniform buttoned to the throat.
Martin Devlin said:
The uniforms look to dark to be army I'd be inclined to think that they are R.I.C. police officers and the building in the background is what we now know as Garda HQ in the pheonix park check out this link archiseek.com/2010/1842-garda-headquarters-phoenix-park-d... The exterior design of the building is a match and cheching on Google the gate posts appear to be the same also

Earliest date 1912 - it looks very new still.

Nope, definitely not Dingle. The church is wrong (I'm one of the priests based there) and the buildings don't look familiar. The church in Dingle (built 1864) has a distinctive tower.
