Designed by a Mr Berkely Deane Wise, according to an article in the Carrick Times and East Antrim Times - Thursday 31 October 1991
In 1888 Berkeley Deane Wise was appointed engineer to the Belfast and Northern Counties Railway. His work in Whitehead included the creation of Blackhead Path, the promenade, ladies and gents bathing boxes on the promenade, a beach (using imported sand from Portrush) and a bandstand. He also designed Sunshine House.

The fellow standing on the left (not the lurker) has on his right forearm a "four-bar Chevron" which evidently denotes years of overseas service in WW1.
The Overseas Service Chevron was created by the British Army on 20 December 1917 and was awarded for each year of overseas service. It was retroactive to December 31, 1914, and was eligible for award until May 1, 1920.
Overseas service was calculated from the day the soldier disembarked from the United Kingdom. A blue chevron was awarded for each 12 months of overseas service after December 31, 1914, with a maximum of 4 blue chevrons (or 5 if the soldier served in Russia after the war). A single red chevron could be awarded for at least a year or more of overseas service before December 31, 1914, and was worn under the blue chevron(s). The Overseas Chevrons were worn on the lower right sleeve of the uniform jacket. Official wear was discontinued in 1922."

Which might imply the photo is 1918 - 1922 (??) -

The fellow seated second from right (smoking a cigarette with ash on his leg!) has chevrons on his left forearm denoting 'Long Service/Good Conduct Badge'. See the second link above.
Edit - He also has a medal bar on his chest. No idea what ... -
