Crest : On a Wreath of the Colours upon a Mount Vert a Stag at gaze proper gorged with a Mural Crown Or.
Motto: 'HAULTE EMPRISE' - High endeavour
Origin/meaning
The arms were officially granted on February 5, 1952.
The basic black shield and cross are taken from the arms of Haltemprice Priory (dissolved and demolished by order of King Henry VIII). This foundation gave its name to the Urban District created in 1935 by the amalagamation of the Urban Districts of Hessle and Cottingham and part of the Rural District of Sculcoates. This has been differenced by the addition of a white rose, the County emblem.
The stag or hart on the mound recalls the fact that this District was originally in the Anglo-Saxon Wapontake of Harthill. The mural crown around the neck of the stag alludes to royal associations.
The motto, translated as either 'High endeavour' or 'Noble undertaking', refers to the name 'Alta Prisa' given to the Augustinian Priory built by Thomas Wake, Lord of Lyddel in 1324. 'Alta Prisa' developed into 'Haulte Emprise' and later Haltemprice.
