One side has a Butler heater-shaped shield which bears a chief indented, this rests on the head of a winged figure in orans posture. Another side also has a heater-shaped shield per saltire with three ermine tails in the upper, dexter and sinister portions of the field and four in the lower portion, supported by a similar winged figure.
