The seahorse is from the heraldry of the Brodenell family of Harborough. In the church at Stonton Wyville, of which, with Cranoe and Glooston, the Brodenells were Lords of the Manor, stands the tomb-chest decorated with seahorses of Edmund Brodenell, who died in 1590. The foxes mask links with the crest of the County Council and recalls fox hunting. | The seahorse is from the heraldry of the Brodenell family of Harborough.
