Physics 1906

This is (according to a marketing email I just recieved), the University of Manchester's Department of Physics in 1906. My immediate take-away is that clearly the hat situation in the Faculty of Science and Engineering has deteriorated. My second thought is a vague curiosity about those women - are my assumptions about how many female academics there were in Physics at the turn of the last century incorrect? Were there an unusual number of female physicists at Manchester in 1906? Or are they support staff of some kind?
