| | Crest & Motto |
 | | Royal Leamington Spa became a borough in 1875 and the charter of incorporation, together with the grant of arms made the following year, are now housed in two handsome cabinets presented to the town by the Leamington Spa Courier. |
 | | Following the abolition of the borough of Royal Leamington Spa by the Local Government Act, 1972, custody of the civic insignia was given to the Charter Trustees, a duty undertaken until the grant of Town Council status in 2002. |
 | | This is the brief history of the ornaments of Royal Leamington Spa, a history of which we all have right to feel proud - a history on which to build an even greater future. |
