Looks like an uilleann piper to me. The set has the older style chanter 
stock that tied straight into the bag but due to chanter length gave a 
fairly sharp angle at the end of the neck. You can also see the brass 
drone stock cup coming out of the bag and facing downwards towards his 
right knee.

Anyone know anything about this chap? (Or fancy having him at home?)

I have no connection with or interest in it apart from mere curiousity.

   ...or maybe pastoral pipes?  They've always had this style of chanter
   tie-in.

   I think you' re right Ian.  On one of the photos the drones can be seen
   lying at the same angle that Uilleann drones would lie.
