MALMESBURY (Wiltshire). Has no armorial bearings. The seal represents a castle with an embattled tower at each end, on the centre a tower domed, thereon a pennon ; on each side of the castle three ears of wheat on one stalk, in chief on the dexter side a mullet of six points, and on the sinister an increscent ; again, on the sinister side three balls, one near the dome of the upper tower, and the other two near the battlements of the sinister tower, the base barry wavy to represent water. Berry adds the following note to his description of the seal : —

" It is also painted as above on a field gules in the Town Hall ; but I believe it never was intended as an Armorial Ensign."
