    Members Arms, Crests, Badges.

    Recently members of the forum have been discussing heraldic arms, in fact several members have either assumed arms or matriculated arms through one of the several institutions authorised to do so.

    I invite members who have assumed or matriculated arms to post a copy their arms, associated flags, etc. in this thread and if they wish a brief explantion of the arms, their meaning, etc.
    The invitation is also open to Armigers, who may not have matriculated arms but have gone to the trouble complying with the Lord Lyon's requirements and have designed and obtained their own bonnet badges.

    So over to the membership

    Thanks for bringing that to my attention Father Bill, my search foo was off today Unfortunately that thread is now closed and I know there are those who have recently assumed/matriculated arms, also I have never seen members armigers badges all in one spot. I just thought it would be fun and helpfull to have photos/images all in one spot, perhaps without others comments on perceived faults. Comments re the design, colours etc could perhaps be subject to an individual thread
