In the crest the owl signifies wisdom and science with a quill pen for arts, letters and commerce.
The supporters are a lion signifying strength and the male element balanced by a hind for speed, fleetness of response and female element. The charred stumps of oak trees on which the supporters rest their feet provide links to the former relationships with Kingston and Surrey. The wave at the base of the compartment stands for the river Thames on which Kingston is sited. The three salmon are from the arms of the [[Royal Borough of Kingston upon Thames|Royal Borough of Kingston]] – the Domesday book mentions that Kingston had three fisheries.
