Origin/meaning
The arms of Archbishop Coleridge have changed considerably during the years.
As auxiliary he designed his first arms. The blue of the shield is symbolic of the heavens where there stream the blood and water flowing from the side of Christ as an eternal promise that there is no wound which cannot become a fountain. Set in the upper part of the shield is the Lion of Saint Mark, symbolising not only the Evangelist and his patron saint, but also the Gospel of which he was a servant.
In the lower half of the shield is the star representing Mary, the Morning Star.
