Deptford had no official coat of arms, but the armorial device used by the Council symbolised interesting events in the history of the Borough. The three black Cornish choughs in the first quarter and the white horse in the fourth represented the two counties in which Deptford was situated geographically, [[Surrey]] and [[Kent]]. The choughs are from the arms of the Earl of Onslow, a prominent landowner in Surrey, while the horse comes from the arms of the County of Kent. | Deptford had no official coat of arms, but the armorial device used by the Council symbolised interesting events in the history of the Borough.
