It's a Dragon "couped" and a cut shaft "Pole-axe".

Malky

I'd go along with that ;D
(Hadn't spotted the broken shaft :-[)

I have attached a snippet of a dragon's head from another armorial.

Thanks All,

At least I now know what it is! I will explore the gun route suggested and see where that takes me, starting with thh maker to see if I can get any records from them.

Thanks again

Richard
