The crown and 3 feathers im sure means its made in London.The B&S is more than likely the makers initials.The ep in the shield would suggest it is probably electro plated as in EPNS(electro plated nickel silver)Without actually looking at them i would say they were plated and not solid silver.I would go to a local jeweller for a second opinion.

To get a Hallmark the silver content must weigh more than 7g, so your spoon is unlikley to be plated
Contact the Assay office, dont know the website but im sure a Yahoo/Google search will reveal all
