The sign depicts the castle, supported by two lions rampant, the keep of which is a famous landmark. The date 1579 refers to the granting of a charter which incorporated the town as a free borough with a common seal and with power to hold property and to hold a court. https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/4361607
