Origin/meaning

The arms were proposed in 1994, but I have no information whether the council actually adopted the design.

The arms are derived from the arms of the oldest known Lords of Graincourt, dating from the 12th and 13th century. They ruled the estate until the 15th century, when it became a possession of the Beauffort family.

Literature : Bouchet et al, 1994
