Incorporated into: 1975 Perth and Kinross District Council (1996 Perth and Kinross Area Council)
Official blazon
Azure, on a pile Or three bars wavy Gules, accompanied by two mullets in fess and a fetterlock in base Argent, and in the dexter and sinister of the nombril point two crosses couped of the Last, each surmounted by a saltire couped of the Third.
Below the Shield which is ensigned of a coronet proper to a Burgh of Barony (videlicet: Gu1es masoned Argent) is placed in an Escrol this Motto Justice Fidelity Truth".
Origin/meaning
The arms were granted on July 28, 1961.
The arms show the blue field with the silver mullets and red/silver saltire crosses from the coat of Murray of Ochtertyre-Dollerie.
The gold pile with its red wavy bars is for Drummond.
The fetterlock symbolises the old baronial powers of justice exercised at Crieff; this was illustrated rather fearsomely, by a baron and scales, on the Burgh seal.
