The dexter supporter, that is to say the stag supporting the torch is a symbol of St. Aidan who founded the Monastery at Lindisfarne.  The stag rests a hoof upon a gold garb in allusion to the important agricultural activities of the area.  The sinister supporter is a horse supporting a hoe also as an allusion to the agriculture of the area. The horse supports with its inner hoof a cog wheel in reference to the light industries of the area.
