man in uniform c1880

Could this strong masonry stone wall be a prison? Old cabinet card of man in uniform. (American or British Uniform?) A rare photograph, not military, why against this wall? My guess, is a British Prison Guard or a Telegraph Messenger? The first correct answer to me, the prize a free set of 6 specialist postcards for the winner.

Real sepia photograph mounted on a cabinet card, photograph a little faded, 16.5 cm by 11cm
