Egerton of Egerton and Olton
Arms : - Quarterly:
1 Gules, a fesse between three pheons Argent.
2 Azure, three bars Argent, over all on a bend Gules, three arrows of the second [Done]
3. Vert, a cross engrailed Ermine [Kingsley]
4 Argent, a bugle horn stringed Sable, within the knot a cinquefoil [Kingsley's Forester's Coat]

Crest: Three arrows one in pale and two in saltire Or, barbed and flighted Sable, banded with a riband Gules.                                                                                                                        




 
Egerton of Ridley
Arms: Quarterly of nine -
1 Argent, a lion rampant Gules, between three pheons Sable, a crescent for cadency [Egerton]
2 Or, three piles in pile Gules, on a canton Argent a griffin segreant Sable [Basset] **
3 Quarterly Gules and Argent, a cross Ermine, a bordure of the second [Beke]
4 Argent, a fesse vaire Or and Gules, between three water bougets Sable, a mullet for cadency [Dethick]
5 Vaire, Argent and Sable [Meynell]
6 Sable, a lion rampant Argent [?]
7 Argent, three bendlets [enhanced] Gules [Byron]
8 Argent, on a bend Azure, three annulets Or, in sinister chief a cross-crosslet fitchy of the second [Colwick]
9 Argent, a greyhound passant Sable, in chief a mullet Gules for cadency [Holford]         

** I believe this to be a mistake in the Visitations transcription. The blazon should be: 2 Or, three piles in point Gules, on a canton Argent a griffin segreant Sable. [Bassett]. These are the arms of Sir Ralph Bassett of Blore.
