Incorporated into : 1974 North Tyneside

Arms (crest) of Wallsend

Official blazon

Arms : Sable Gutté-d'Or in base an Embattled Wall thereon an Eagle displayed Or.
Motto: 'SITU EXORITUR SEGEDUNI' - Arose on the site of Segedunum

Origin/meaning

The arms were officially granted on October 8, 1902.

The arms show the Roman eagle, standing on the Hadrian's Wall, the border of the Roman Empire in the second century AD. The motto tells that Wallsend arose on the site of the (Roman) Segedunum.

The black field and the golden drops stand for the coal and copper-smelting industries.
