Thank you for putting up the images hillsbro. After closer inspection the mark shows it as JR&S (John Round & Sons) and after investigtion online the markings show it to be silver plated :-( still its a nice piece of history and I had fun researching it :-) thank you Sheffield forum too.

i will try to confirm and get a better image of the lettering today

Hello everyone, we have recently come into ownership of what appears to be a JD&S silver teapot but it is difficult to pin down it age and value. On the bottom of the pot are the markings 22 A symbol which looks like two three forks in the shape of a cross JD&S followed by what looks like a crown 11842 4 The base is completely flat The lid has a visible hinge and also has what looks like an ivory lid knob I have some images but am unable to post on this forum Thank you for any information
