The crest was a representation of the town's medieval castle.
- The college's coat of arms are blazoned: "Gules, three lions passant guardant or within a bordure engrailed argent".

- McCulloch of Mule and Inshanks: Ermine frette gules, a bordure, indented of the second.
- The per chevron division and addition of a bordure serve to distinguish the shield from its predecessor, while retaining its medieval simplicity.

- The coat of arms of Meinerzhagen shows a red lion as the symbol of the duchy Berg, placed on a blue St. Andrew's cross on yellow ground, referring to the family von Badinghagen, which became extinct in the 17th century.

- The coat of arms is a shakefork with a cinquefoil, for Glengarnock: a cross moline within a bordure invected, for Caddel: three stars within a bordure invected, for Muir of Thorntoun; and a crest of a unicorn's head. The motto is "Over fork over" and as such is unchanged from that of the senior branch, the Cunninghames of Kilmaurs, Earls of Glencairn.
- Since it is very often used for cadency rather than to distinguish between original coats, the bordure is not strictly held to the rule of tincture; for example, many cadets of the French royal house, for example, bore red bordures on a blue field. Rarely a bordure is of the "same" tincture as the field on which it lies; in this case the term "embordured" is employed. This was a very unusual practice even centuries ago and is all but unheard-of today.
- The simpler system primarily used four marks of difference: the "label", the "bordure", the "bend", and the "bordure engrailed". The tinctures used were gules; a compony of argent and gules; and argent. They occasionally came up with more unusual forms, such as a "bordure-label gules" and a "bordure gules charged with eight plates".
