The coat of arms of Poole was first recorded by Clarenceux King of Arms during the heraldic visitation of Dorset in 1563. The arms were recorded again at the visitation of 1623, but neither visitation noted the colours of the arms. The design originated in a seal of the late 14th century and therefore predated the setting up of the College of Heralds in 1484 and also the order of King Henry V in 1417, which disallowed the bearing of arms without authority from the Crown.

  • The coat of arms of Poole was first recorded by Clarenceux King of Arms during the heraldic visitation of Dorset in 1563. The arms were recorded again at the visitation of 1623, but neither visitation noted the colours of the arms. The design originated in a seal of the late 14th century and therefore predated the setting up of the College of Heralds in 1484 and also the order of King Henry V in 1417, which disallowed the bearing of arms without authority from the Crown. The arms were confirmed by the College of Arms on 19 June 1948, with the colours officially recorded for the first time. At the same time the crest was granted, a mermaid supporting an anchor and holding a cannonball, although it had been in use since the 18th century. Following local government reorganisation in 1974, the 1948 arms were transferred to the present Poole Borough Council. In 1976 the borough council received the grant of supporters, the figures on either side of the shield, a gift from Oscar Murton, the then Deputy Speaker of the House of Commons to commemorate his period of service as a Councillor and MP for Poole. On 1 May 2019 the Borough of Poole was abolished and merged into the new Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole unitary authority. The councillors representing the area of the former borough form Charter Trustees for the town, and on 14 August 2020 the arms were transferred to the trustees by royal licence. (en)
