As a general rule, if the factory mark shows a vertical "ENGLAND", the piece was manufactured after 1890 and before 1923 and is not likely to appear in this website.
There are however some exceptions.

Most UK pottery, in general, can be identified through back stamps.
There are some forgeries found in Wedgwood pieces bearing the marks of Dresden and Chelsea but one must remember that most of the manufacturers have changed their marks over the years.
