Established:

Arms of Worshipful Company of Cooks

Official blazon

Arms : Argent, a chevron engrailed sable between three columbine flowers azure.
Crest: On a wreath of the colours, A mount vert, thereon a cock pheasant proper. Mantled gules, doubled argent.
Supporters: On the dexter side a buck and on the sinister side a doe, both proper.

Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on 13 October 1467 to replace earlier one of 31 May 1461; crest and supporters granted 1st August 1614. Each supporter was originally transfixed by an arrow but these were removed at the Visitation of 1687.

If this text appears, it means that background information is available, but that I have not yet had the time to add the information on these arms. Just [|mail me with the name of the town in the subject !] and I will add all information that I have !
