Penarth Civic Insignia and Crest
Depicted on the name sign for West House, Penarth Town Council's offices. http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/5094705
The Welsh motto Cynghori er Llesiant means Counsel for Benefit (or Gain).
The town crest was drawn by the town's architect in 1875 from a detailed brief prepared by the Town Board. It shows a bear's head above a shield supported by two standing bears. The shield depicts contains a Welsh Red Dragon to denote that the town is in Wales and a sailing vessel symbolising Penarth's long association with sea commerce.
The reference to bears is from a literal translation of Penarth. In Welsh, arth is bear and pen is head. Although that used to be the accepted derivation of the town's name, some modern scholars have suggested that the name is a shortened form of Pen-y-garth, where garth means cliff, hence head of the cliff or cliff top(s).
