Formerly called the Rayleigh Arms, this is indeed the coat of arms granted in 1821 to Baron Rayleigh, who was the local squire, of family name Strutt. Officially described: Arms: Azure on a Chevron Argent between three Cross Crosslets fitchy Or as many Leopards' Faces proper Crest: A Demi Lion Azure gorged with a Mural Crown holding in the dexter paw a Cross Crosslet fitchy Or and resting the sinister on a Shield Sable charged with a Chevron Argent between three Cross Crosslets fitchy also Or Supporters: Dexter: a Reindeer Or collared and attired Sable ; Sinister: a Monkey proper banded round the loins and chained the Chain reflexed over the back Or Motto: Tenax Propositi The monkey's chain has been rendered in the wrong colour, also the crest seems to be an abbreviated version.
