This is the sign for Image After a lot of searching to try and find which King this coat of arms belongs to, I can only conclude that there has been a lot of artistic licence has been used in the creation of this sign. All the Royal coats of arms carry three lions passant on a red field (or background), however the English Football Association has the three lions passant on a white field and is the only symbol allowed to do so having been granted permission by the Guild of Heralds in the 1940's. My grateful thanks to Trish Steel ( http://www.geograph.org.uk/profile/9274 ) for her invaluable help in trying to narrow this down.
