Thanks to all for your suggestions and contributions.  It looks like I will need to take some time out to track down the Verification Marks as one list shows it to be a Birmingham Mark and another (more likely) to be a Batterea Mark, but have been unable to get any dating to go with it.

I will also put together a family tree for the Turpin Globe Landlaord, to get a better idea of when it was in use (this will not a the firsttime I have created a family tree, asthis was done a few years ago to find out about a family of clockmakes inscribed on an old grandfather clock !).

The same site with the verification marks also offers to help people identify their old pewter

Good luck!
