Not on the picture above, but belonging to the arms, is a white horse as a crest. The horse is taken from the arms of Kent, to which the district belongs. The crest is placed on a helmet with white and red mantling, the colours of Kent. The horse holds in its mouth a hop-cone (for the hop growing in the area) and a driving wheel (for the industry). Below the arms is a motto :"With stronger faith", taken from a poem by the 17<sup>th</sup> century poet Richard Lovelace of Betherdsen in the district. | Not on the picture above, but belonging to the arms, is a white horse as a crest.
