The supporters commemorate famous families on the Lancashire and Yorkshire sides of the District. They are stags, here both shown in their natural colours for aesthetic reasons. That on the left derives from the gold stag supporter of the Stanley Earls of Derby; he has a white collar charged with three pierced mullets, or spur rowels, in black - the famous arms of the Asshetons. In his mouth is a single Red Rose of Lancaster. On the right, recalling the stags in the arms of the Parkers of Browsholme and the Lister Barons Ribblesdale, whose three gold mullets on black provide the collar. In his mouth is a single white Rose of York. The supporters stand on a special base of grass with outcrops of limestone, divided by conventional heraldic waves, representing the Ribble Valley. | The supporters commemorate famous families on the Lancashire and Yorkshire sides of the District.
