SMLEs, either Mk. III or No. 1 Mk. III, depending on the timeframe (The rifles were the same, the designation changed.)

Looking at the length of the bayonet, I'd judge them 1914-18 (18"), fairly sure that WWII had shorter ones (12")

 

[Jakko]

I looked it up, and it seems the standard 550-mm-long bayonet remained in use for the whole time the SMLE itself was. However, in 1941 the Indian Army began cutting them down to 310 mm and making new ones to that length as well.
