Arms of the Salford City and County Borough Council. File taken from civicheraldry.co.uk, with permission (see about the civic heraldry images...).
Description
editThis is the coat of arms of the former Salford City and County Borough Council.
The three wheatsheaves on blue refer to the Earldom of Chester, of which Salford was anciently part. The bees stand for industry, the shuttles and bale for cotton, and the millrinds for iron. The wolf is a further reference to Cheshire, being that of Hugh Lupus, first Earl of Chester. The heraldric antelope (which is also a supporter of Manchester) is a Beaufort emblem and represents the Earldom and later Duchy of Lancaster, to which Salford subsequently passed.
Motto 'INTEGRITY AND INDUSTRY'. Arms and Crest granted 5th November 1844. Supporters granted 6th November 1844. Badge granted 15th September 1959.
Incorporated into the new (metropolitan) Salford City Council arms in 1974.
Rationale
editThe inclusion of this non-free symbol (in its strictest sense) on Salford is intended to improve the context and readibility of these articles. Many coat of arms of Britain's current and former councils exist on other parts of Wikipedia.
The icon is of a defunct (since 1974) organisation (the Salford City and County Borough Council - a former public corporation), but commonly used as a symbol of a local division of land.
Illustrates and educates re Salford without restricting or diminishes copyright holders ability to use the image. The image exists beyond the life of the author plus 70 years.
