“Also, as before stated, he had a grant of arms. The Reade family into which he married was also armigerous, so the combined influence was able to advance the fortunes of his son Thomas, who is the first to be mentioned in public affairs, and through whom came great increase of wealth to the family, and its consequent rise in influence and importance.”

Detail of the shield in the roundel, showing a golden martlet (above) The ‘Mildmay of Essex’ arms, used by Sir Walter until 1583, had been granted to his father by a previous Clarenceux King. At Emmanuel they can be seen in the plaque mounted on the wall above the main Library staircase; this carving, originally displayed over a fireplace in the Founder’s mansion at Apethorpe, comprises an armorial roundel and a tablet containing latin verses composed by Mildmay’s friend Walter Haddon; it was brought to Emmanuel in 1950. The ‘Mildmay of Essex’ arms are also enamelled on the finial of the Founder’s Cup, a silver-gilt tazza made in Antwerp in 1541/2. In 1583 or soon afterwards Sir Walter had his new quarterly arms enamelled on a print inside the cover of the tazza, which he presented to Emmanuel shortly after the College’s foundation. Although the exact date of Sir Walter’s birth is unknown, documentary evidence indicates that he was the fifth son of Thomas Mildmay; yet many representations of his arms include the bird known in heraldry as a martlet, the cadency mark of a fourth son. The explanation for this is that one of Sir Walter’s elder brothers, Edward, died in 1549, following which event the younger brothers would have changed their cadency marks.
