«The Cheshire Heraldry Trust» is a foundation whose specific aim is the promotion of the study and dissemination of the heraldry of Cheshire county and whose general purpose includes the study of heraldry and its related disciplines. To achieve these objectives it organises conferences, debates, visits and exhibitions, produces publications, cooperates with other bodies sharing common goals and promotes the heraldic art of the County of Cheshire through the internet.

The website Cheshire-Heraldry.org.uk is the public face on the internet of «The Cheshire Heraldry Trust», and among its extensive content, the following 4 sections are of particular interest:

• The Vale Royal de 1656, that follows and illustrates [King, D.; 1656].
• Las visitas de 1533 a 1580, which follows [Rylands, J. P.; 1882] and whose colour content can be consulted in [Goldstraw, M. S. J.; 2013a].
• Las visitas de 1613, which follows [Armytage, G. J.; Rylands, J. P.; 1909] and whose colour content can be consulted in [Goldstraw, M. S. J.; 2013b].
• Las visitas de 1663, which follows and illustrates [Adams, A.; 1941].

Martin S. J. Goldstraw is one of the founders of «The Cheshire Heraldry Trust» and is the author and illustrator of the website Cheshire-Heraldry.org.uk and of a series of heraldry books, for example, [Goldstraw, M. S. J.; 2013a] and [Goldstraw, M. S. J.; 2013b].

County of Cheshire, The Vale Royal, 1656.

Sable, a crozier Or, between three garbs Or.

Escudo de sable, un báculo de oro, acompañado de tres gavillas de trigo de oro.

Coat of arms interpreted with: a rounded base; the field illuminated in Sable; the crozier illuminated in Or, facing right on the shield and outlined in Sable; the garbs illuminated in Or and outlined in Sable; and the whole with a leather texture.

A coat of arms recorded in [King, D.; 1656] which in Cheshire Heraldry is blazoned as follows: «Sable a crozier in pale between three garbs Or».

As a curiosity, it can be observed that in [King, D.; 1656] and in Cheshire Heraldry, the croziers ~ báculos are depicted with their head facing left on the shield, whereas, in general, it is more common to represent them facing right; for my interpretation I have chosen this latter arrangement.

Since the three garbs are arranged in the usual heraldic manner, it is possible to omit the expression «2 y 1» or «ordered», though it may also be included to avoid any doubt.

It is the norm in heraldry that charges upon a bend are arranged bendwise, so since the three garbs are disposed in this way it is possible to omit the expression «bendwise», though it may also be included to avoid any doubt, as I have done in this instance.

Martin S. J. Goldstraw was born in Leek, a town in the rural area of North Staffordshire, known as the «queen of the moors». His interest in the heraldry of the County of Cheshire began when he discovered that the origins of his surname Goldstraw lay in the surname and village of Goostrey in the County of Cheshire.

Martin S. J. Goldstraw writes that for him heraldry is something addictive, to which he was already devoted during his university years and in which he continues to work well into this third millennium. He is the author of the coats of arms presented on the website of Cheshire Heraldry and author of books on the heraldry of the County of Cheshire.

When blazoning the 2^nd badger, it must be taken into account that its head is regardant, which is what «is said of animals, or their heads, turned toward the sinister side of the shield» [Avilés, J.; 1725a; page 55] and [Avilés, J.; 1780a; page 61].

Use of the plural with the Saxon genitive

While in Castilian one uses the plural for the heads and the singular for the lion, that is, one writes «dos cabezas de león», in English one uses the plural for both the heads and the lions, that is, one writes «two lions' heads» and, therefore, the «s» of the Saxon genitive is omitted and only the apostrophe is written. This usage is general, for example:

• «there boars' heads» ~ «tres cabezas de jabalí»,
• «a pair of eagles' wings» ~ «dos medios vuelos»,
• «two ravens' wings» ~ «dos alas de cuervo»,
• «three hinds' heads» ~ «tres cabezas de cierva»,
• «four tritons' trumpet» ~ «cuatro trompetas de tritón»,
• «three wolfs' claws» ~ «tres garras de lobo»,
• «two greyhounds' heads» ~ «dos cabezas de galgo»,
• «two bears' forepaws» ~ «dos patas delanteras de oso»,
• «four dragons' heads» ~ «cuatro cabezas de dragante»,
• «two roe deers' attires» ~ « dos cuernas de corzo»,
• «three spears' heads» ~ «tres puntas de lanza»,
• «two unicorns' heads» ~ «dos cabezas de unicornio»,
• «two rams' horns» ~ «dos cuernos de carnero» o
• «three leopards' faces» ~ «tres cabezas de leopardo».

Except in cases where the term is used in English as if it were an adjective, for example «two Catherine wheels» ~ «dos ruedas de Santa Catalina», which are the wheels used to martyr her, or «three wagon wheels» ~ «tres ruedas de carro».

Coat of arms interpreted with: a rounded base; the field illuminated in Argent and Gules; the 4 crescents, outlined in Sable, in plain Argent and Sable tinctures; and the whole in raised-stroke style.

Regarding the moon, [Avilés, J.; 1780a; página 306] tells us that «según el error popular figuran con cara humana algunos, se ve muy poco usada en las Armerías de España, y lo mismo en las de Francia; y porque se encuentra así en muchos Escudos de Alemanes.». On the crescent he adds that «es una figura en forma de Luna, llamada por esto de muchos así, ó por su diminución Luneta».

Background on the bearer of this coat of arms:

• The first Vernon to arrive in England was William de Vernon, who came during the Norman Conquest and obtained lands in the county of Cheshire. He held them thanks to its first earl, known as Hugh d'Avranches.
• His son Richard de Vernon settled in Shipbrook, near Northwich, also in county of Cheshire and was the first Baron of Shipbrook.
• The barony passed down until Warine Vernon, 5^th Baron of Shipbrook, had no male heirs and his vast lands were divided among his daughters and his brother Raplh de Hanwell.
• The son of Raplh de Hanwell was also named Ralph and lived so many years that he earned the nickname «The Old Liver». I understand that his arms are those presented in this article, which is titled Vernon the Elder, Sir Raulfe.
• He was succeeded by his son Sir Richard, the fruit of his 2^nd marriage with Matilda Grosvenor of Kinderton, Cheshire, who was therefore the 7^th Baron.
• His grandson, also named Sir Richard, fought at the Battle of Shrewsbury with the forces opposed to King Henry IV of England, was captured and executed for treason.
