COLERAINE (Co. Antrim). Has no armorial bearings registered in Ulster's Office. Those represented upon the seal which appear to be in general use are

" Argent a cross gules, in the first quarter a sword erect of the last, in the second quarter a fish naiant proper." (Probably founded upon the arms of the City of London.) An earlier seal presented by Sir Tristram Beresford, Bart, (so created 1665, died 1673) shows different arms, viz. argent, a chevron azure, between two garbs in chief and a salmon in base proper, a chief of the arms of the City of London, the cross thereof charged in the centre with a harp.
