...on the wall of the Dunecht Estate Offices. We see Pearson (Per fesse indented gules and or, two suns in splendour in chief and a demi-gryphon couped, wings elevated and addorsed, in base all counterchanged) impaling Cass (Per pale argent and azure, a balance suspended between two flaunches*, each charged with a branch of palm slipped,** all counterchanged). The supporters are: Dexter, a diver holding in his exterior hand his helmet; sinister, a Mexican peon (sic), both proper (*a circular arc emerging out of each flank of the shield; **a stem or stalk). The crest: On a wreath of the colours, in front of a demi-gryphon as in the arms, holding between the paws a millstone proper, thereon a millrind sable, a sun in splendour. Blazons from Armorial Families by Fox-Davies. For Viscount Cowdray, see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weetman_Pearson,_1st_Viscount_Cowdray .
