Origin/meaning

The arms were recorded at the College of Arms.

This Coat of Arms first appears to have been used by Archbishop Robert Waldby (1397-1398). The Crown originaly more resembled the Papal Tiara, but was made into a Royal Crown after 1531. The arms thus alludes to St Peter. Anciently the Archbishop used as their official Arms a Shield identical with that of the See of Canterbury.
