Arms (crest) of Worksop RDC

Official blazon

Arms : Per saltire Vert and Sable on a Saltire Argent between two Garbs palewise Or and two Stags' Heads caboshed fessewise also Argent two Tilting Spears in saltire Gules their points uppermost.
Crest : On a Wreath Argent and Sable in front of two Sprigs of Oak entwined leaved and fructed proper a Lozenge Sable over all a Stag's Head caboshed Argent attired and langued Gules.
Motto: 'WORK SUPPORTS ALL'.

Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on July 31, 1952.

The green areas and wheatsheaves allude to agriculture and the black areas to coal-mining. The stags' heads are from the arms of the Duke of Portland, a local landowner, and the tilting lances refer to a former tournament field licensed by Richard I for public tourneys.

The oak sprigs and stag's head represent Sherwood Forest, and the 'black diamond' stands for coal.
