The arms on the right hand side are for Sir Edward LEWIS who died 1630. As you can see his arms have been quartered.

The first quarter -Is Sable or Azure (black or blue background), a lion rampant, Argent armed Gules ( the lion's claws are red) for the LEWIS family.

The second quarter - Is Sable or Azure (black or blue background) a chevron between three fleu-de- lys Argent (Silver) for COLWYN AP TANGO.

The third quarter - Is Gules(red) three chevronels Argent (Silver) is for GESTYN AP GWRGAN.

The fourth quarter - Is Sable or Azure(blue or black background) a chevron between three spear heads Argent(Silver) embrued Gules for CARADOC VREICHFAR.

Edward LEWIS' wife was actually the daughter of Robert SACKVILLE, Earl of Dorset. Her name was therefore Ann SACKVILLE. Her marriage to Edward LEWIS was actually her second marriage as she had previously been married to Edmund Lord BEAUCHAMP.

Therefore the other side of the shield - the left side depicts Ann's arms which are:

Impaling, quarterly Or and Gules (alternate quarters coloured Gold and Red), overall a bend Viar (the band across the quarters which was a type of fur known as Viar) for SACKVILLE.
