Thanks to this thread I have been able to confirm that these shoulder chains (image attached, I hope) are incorrectly labelled in a small village museum. The name is correct and research shows the man served with the Norfolk Yeomanry, service no 931. I'm guessing with that number he enlisted before 1914 - can anyone confirm that? Thanks.

It looks like he is a pre-war man.
