Topic: Clarenceux King of Arms


  
 What Did Heralds Wear
Kings of Arms had additional identifying regalia, and there appears to have been some practices adopted by free-lance heralds which are unique to that status.
Fox- Davies [FD69] provides a drawing of the coronet of the kings of arms at the end of Chapter 22; he also remarks that “anciently” the Lyon King of Arms wore a crown identical to that of the King of Scotland except that it was not jeweled.
The way these arms were displayed varied both over time (as fashions for both nobles and their heralds changed) and with the rank and duties of the ocer at arms in question.

But King Henry II of England, who had aspired to the protector of Galloway, resented this, and was so much in earnest that he marched a large force to Carlisle, while Roland prepared for invasion by Fortifying the natural approaches to his territory.
