County Mayo Coat of Arms

The Mayo arms consist of nine yew trees, a Patriarchal Cross and three Passion Crosses with a ship and waves. The word Mhaigh Eo means - the plain of the Yew Trees. Mayo is a maritime county, which is represented by the ship and waves.

The IBD Home Page and each IBD County Page has or will have (where possible) the relevant Coat of Arms. This is made possible thanks to a fantastic heraldry website called the International Civic Heraldry Website. Sometimes a description is not given due to lack of information, so if anyone could help it would be greatly appreciated. You may visit this superb site by using the link below.
