I am looking at 'The Silversmiths of Birmingham 1750-1980' by Kenneth Crisp Jones. J Gloster Ltd registered five similar marks between May 1909 and August 1949, your mark appears to be the February 1935 registration, the right hand side of the mark has been lost, a letter D should follow the T in a completed oval. The date mark W appears to be that for 1946-47.
