Charcoal making was an important activity at the time in the village. The meaning of the apple tree is not clear; it may have been derived from the Latin Pomus, and thus a canting symbol. It may also simply refer to the local apple orchards, or both. In the 19th and 20th century the local seals only used the name of the village.
