Hi. This is a 'flow blue' transferware plate from Royal Doulton.
The factory was at Nile Street Burslem, Stoke on Trent, Staffordshire UK.
Henry Doulton moved to this factory in Nile Street in 1877.
The backstamp mark on your plate was introduced in the latter part of 1901 to mark the grant of the Royal Warrant by King Edward VII together with the specific right to use the word ROYAL to designate Doulton products. This mark was in general use at Burslem between 1902 and 1922.
I believe the design is a tavern print from the "Sketches From Teniers" series. The work of the 17th Century Flemish artist David Teniers the Younger was the basis for the designs of many English potteries.
If there is a design number under these stickers you might get some more information.
