BERLENCOURT-LE-CAUROY
Département : Pas-de-Calais
Origin/meaning
The black bend in the arms show the Canche river that runs through the village and which is a well known river for fishing. This is symbolised by the trout in the upper half of the arms. The three blue bars are derived from the arms of the Barons of Beauffort, who acquired the village in 1671. The hazel branch is a canting symbol. The name Cauroy is derived from the Latin colretus, or area planted with hazel trees.
These arms were proposed in 1994 and I have no information whether the municipality actually adopted the proposal.
Literature : Bouchet et al, 1994
