Knowing that these were British police in Ireland, in 1888, I'd say this was from the *Irish Land Wars.*

After a devastating famine, British landlords of Irish land raised the rents and then sent in police with medieval weapons to destroy the homes Irish people built. The battering ram was brought into play because the Irish communities were naturally united in resisting the punishments their oversea overlords handed down to them
