-Currently the Deal town council doe no longer use these arms, but uses the arms of the Cinque Ports instead. This is due to the fact that the College of Arms did not accept the transfer from the Borough arms to the Town Council, as these were not identical geographically. The town had used the old arms for more as 30 years before the College of Arms stepped in. Instead of applying for new arms (or a legal transfer), the town council adopted the historical Cinque Ports arms instead.
