Badge and Chain of the Borough of Tynemouth, 1850. Creator: Unknown

Badge and Chain of the Borough of Tynemouth, 1850. The Mayor, Aldermen, and Burgesses of the borough of Tynemouth [Tyne & Wear], which was incorporated last year, have lately adopted a Corporation Seal, of which the following is the description; viz. the shield bears the arms of the ancient Priory of Tynemouth, which are, on a field gules three crowns or, to which is added a full-rigged ship for a crest, and a sailor and a miner for supporters, with the motto "Messis ab altis" - "Our harvest is from the deeps"; and as the principal trade of the place is in coals, carried by ships to London and abroad, it may not be considered an inappropriate device'. From "Illustrated London News", 1850
