Not Blenko but probably English,Stevens and Williams has been suggested,looks like a pontil mark to me that has been polished ;D

ahh,fair enough i came across a couple of them on ebay described as blenco ,i did look at blenco sites and like you said all seemed to be rough pontil,but they did say some were smoothed so the piece sat well

Stevens and Williams/Royal Brierley Pattern No D107. Not much value I'm afraid
