Trying to find Sleeman

Hello, I have come across an old picture, with my great grandfather in it, entitled 'Mr Sleeman's party, outing to Fishbourne July 15 1911'. The picture is of 28 men all turned out in their 'Sunday best'. My great grandfather was a shipwright in Portsmouth Dockyards all his life and I'm guessing this was some sort of work outing to celebrate a manager/owner's birthday. If anyone can shed any light on this I would be grateful. I would be more than happy to pass on a copy of the picture to anyone connected with the Sleeman family. Thanks, Niki.
