| | |
| The wheatsheaves are from the arms of the [[Cheshire]] County Council, and the lozenges are from the arms of the Massey family of Sale.
| |
| | |
| The moorcock refers to the district of Sale Moor.
| |
| | |
| The unicorn, suggested by the unicorn's head crest of the Carrington family, represents the Ashton-on-Mersey district of Sale, and the badger, or brock, is a punning allusion to Brooklands. The sallow twigs, and the first word of the motto, refer to the name of the Borough.
