Two small shields occur, one at the top of each ogee arch. The one to the left impales a full chevron on the dexter with a dimidiated shield of three garbs on the sinister. The shield to the right repeats the chevron but impales a barry shield on the sinister instead. No trace of the original colors remain to help identify the bearers.
