Chevron Query
« on: Saturday 29 June 13 14:39 BST (UK) »
Hello All,
I'm familiar with chevrons & their meanings generally, but can anyone tell me what the attached means? The right lower tip looks as if it was meant to be shaped, not just a chip broken off the intended design.
Cheers,
Bob

What is the context?  Is it on a coat of arms?  Which coat of arms?  What nationality?

The possible answers change with the context of the design.

It's a Scottish memorial, David. It has a sword to its right side.  I suppose it might just be a chevron with a chip broken off.
