The 1989 revised edition of Jackson lists this mark for the Waveney Valley in East Anglia, p. 347, based on similar marks found on a church plate in this region. The Ellis catalogue, Sotheby's, London, 13 November 1935, catalogued by Commander How, contained five seal tops thus marked lots 93-97, the last from the Collection of the Marquess of Breadalbane.
Christopher Hartop in East Anglian Silver 1530-1750, illustrated this mark on a seal top spoon circa 1650, no. 74, p. 94, catalogued as Waveney Valley, probably Beccles.
