It looks to me like this pattern may be one of the scenes from a pattern called "Chinese Temples" by Williams/Weber in STAFFORDSHIRE II "Romantic Transfer Patterns", p. 90. A scene that differs slightly from the one shown there is in the TCC Database of Patterns, also titled "Chinese Temples". The TCC editor also notes that Williams/Weber shows a pattern by the same name on p. 91 by Wood & Challinor that is the same center pattern as the Davenport pattern in the database. It also has the little border shown in the shard and the same wide border on the rim as the Davenport marked plate. I cannot date the pattern more tightly than 1820-60 because the printed mark includes two palm trees and the figure of a man in addition to the Davenport name and anchor and is not found in DAVENPORT POTTERY AND PORCELAIN 1794-1887 by T. A. Lockett. I hope this is of some help to you.
