Summary

[edit]
Description
Arms of 2nd Earl of Pembroke as recorded by York Herald, 1620. The arms shown in quarters 1, 8, 9 10 are shown in the stained glass roundel in Mappperton Church

Arms of William Herbert, 1st Earl of Pembroke, KG (1501-1570), stained glass, Mapperton Church, Dorset. Circumscribed by the Garter. Exactly the same shield is reported by John Hutchins in his History of Dorset, 1774, vol.I, p.454 [1] as in the south window of the Hall of Wolveton House, Dorset, the seat of the Trenchard family (which married Elizabeth Morgan, a daughter of John Morgan (d.1580), hanged for murder). One of four similar roundels depicting the arms of contemporaneous Knights of the Garter during the age of King Henry VIII. Also one showing the royal arms, probably of Henry VIII, also circumscribed by the Garter. Similar style to a roundel of the arms in the same church of John Morgan (d.1535) of Mapperton House, whose son Robert Morgan (d.1567) built the surviving Mapperton House in the 1540s. The stained glass armorial roundels were probably originally displayed in the windows of the Great Hall, as a public display the the Morgan family was supportive of the Establishment. One would not want to be considered as a political dissident in those days.

Descent

Sir Richard Herbert (d.1510) of Ewyas, Herefordshire, was an illegitimate son of William Herbert, 1st Earl of Pembroke (1423–1469), and Maud ap Howell Graunt, a daughter of Adam ap Howell Graunt (Gwynn). By his wife Margaret Cradock, heiress of Candlestone Castle in Glamorgan, he was the father of William Herbert, 1st Earl of Pembroke (1501–1570), who was created Earl of Pembroke (of the second creation) in 1551. The arms are Herbert (Per pale azure and gules, three lions rampant argent), differenced by a bordure componée gules bezantée and or. The differenced arms were borne by William Herbert, 1st Earl of Pembroke (1423–1469) and by his son Henry Herbert, 2nd Earl of Pembroke (c. 1539 – 1601), but the difference was dropped by later earls, who bore Herbert undifferenced.
