The Arms are based on
those historically associated with the name (see Nisbet, p.371), and
incorporate the Livery colours, the chevron and the roses. For
difference, the chevron has been waved and the three roses placed in
chief. The roses hold the additional significance of representing
the Armiger’s three daughters. In base is placed an Azure swallow in
memory of the Armiger’s late husband, who regarded the sight of the
first swallow of the year as a sign of the arrival of Spring. The
crest of a hand holding a sprig of three roses is a further
reference to the Armiger’s daughters.
The Baroness is descended through her Mother from the Lees family,
Baronets of Blackrock in Dublin. This relationship is represented by
the gold cross-crosslet fitchée and the Motto, both taken from the
Arms of Lees of Blackrock.
Mrs Cadzow’s late husband’s father and two uncles evolved the Luing
breed of cattle on the Island of Luing, just off the west coast of
Scotland in Argyllshire . Pure bred Luing cattle combine the
outstanding complementary qualities of the Beef Shorthorn and the
Highland cattle. The British Government officially recognized the
Luing as a breed in its own right in 1965. The breed is now a 'breed
of our time' and is thriving right across the UK, Ireland, Europe,
Canada, New Zealand, Australia and South America. The Cadzow estates
in West Lothian are still farmed by the family.
The Arms were designed by Romilly Squire and, in this example,
painted by Patricia Bertram.
