The Shield is based upon the Arms or Three Chevronels Gules which belonged to the Clare Family, who held the medieval lordship of Glamorgan. The wavy chief is taken from the Arms of the former Cynon Valley Borough Council, and refers to local rivers. The acorns come from the Arms of the former Borough of Rhondda, where they represented the ancient forest and the growth of new industries. The celestial crown is taken from the Arms of the former Borough Council of Taff Ely, and its predecessor Llantrisant and Llantwit Fardre Rural District Council. | The Shield is based upon the Arms or Three Chevronels Gules which belonged to the Clare Family, who held the medieval lordship of Glamorgan.
