The chief dancetty alludes to the Drakensberg and the bar wavy to both the rivers of the diocese and the sea. The Celtic cross refers to the role of the Episcopal Church of Scotland in establishing the Diocese of St John, from which Umzimvubu was taken. The form of this Celtic cross is based on that of Muireadach’s Cross in County Louth, where the two finest examples of Celtic high crosses in Ireland stand. | The chief dancetty alludes to the Drakensberg and the bar wavy to both the rivers of the diocese and the sea.
