unusual hose?

Wow, interesting photo! I notice they are all wearing matching windowpane tweed(?) kilts and matching jackets (see the piping on the cuffs which is very distinct). I wonder what kind of uniform this was? Obviously civilian, not military, but also very obviously coordinated with the kilts and jackets. They each seem to have their own flair with hose and headwear.

The fishing gear mixed with shepherd's crooks is confusing me.

All workers/Ghillies on some estate. Not sure which though.
